May 24, 2021I really love this album. Drivers License slapped hard. I'm not a teenager but I can relate to what she wanted to say in this album. Not only talk about heartbreak and breakup, this album tells us about how to deal with insecurity, self-esteem, friendship, etc. A very good and solid album from a young artist. With SOUR, Olivia gives us the promising future for her career and discography.
-
Oct 17, 2021One of the best 2021 albums. Olivia shows a very vulnerable version of herself, the songs are really emotional, her vocals are on point and everything is great.

May 21, 2021The versatility of Rodrigo in 'SOUR' is surprising, the record explores a lot of different genres, pop-rock, pop, alternative, folk and combines an astonishing songwriting with an amazing production, making 'SOUR' an impressive debut that proves and advances Rodrigo's tremendous talent.

May 21, 2021For a debut album it is very fabulous, it has different sounds and is rich in lyric, it shows Rodrigo's great ability to compose, his composition recalls the country days of Taylor Swfit, to be a teenage artist it is a great debut.
Olivia Rodrigo is undoubtedly catapulting herself as an upcoming pop star on the rise. -
May 23, 2021Perfection. It’s an amazing debut album, one of the best I’ve listened to.
-
May 21, 2021O álbum é bom mas eu esperava mais rock meus amores, Good 4 U é a maior e quem não gostou que se foda.
-
May 21, 2021Primeiro vamos falar sobre o quanto essa mulher é talentosa. Voz impecável, Potencial Vocal, Compositora. Temos o prazer de ouvir "SOUR" e nos degustar com esse romance adolescente azedinho. É o tipo de trabalho que nos encanta e nos inspira. Olivia Rodrigo, parabéns!
-
May 23, 2021This is by far one of the best debuts EVER. She is an amazing writer. And to the people saying "it's all the same subject" maybe it'd because she wrote this last year?? On her own?? She was not planning to release it all but just released drivers license just for the fun of it. She did not expect the reception it got so she just kept making the other songs that she had already made

Apr 8, 2022Her combination of sweet melodies and bitter moods, her conversational flow, and her self-awareness are all skills many songwriters twice her age would love to call their own, and they make Sour a well-rounded emotional journey and strong debut album.
-
May 21, 2021Probably one of the best debut albums ever. It's so strong and cohesive, rare for a new artist. The expectations were high after the success of driver's license, and Olivia did not disappoint!
-
May 21, 2021This album is so versatile. The songwriting and lyrics from Olivia Rodrigo and Dan Nigro are deep, vulnerable and powerful. Rodrigo’s voice is beautiful and emotional, and overall the album made me feel so much. I would most definitely recommend this album to everyone!!

May 21, 2021Es un álbum espectacular, tiene melodias pegadizas y brutal es un inicio hermoso.
Olivia era lo que necesitabamos los adolescentes -
May 21, 2021It is really a great debut album. She’s new to the industry we need to cut her some slack. I think because of Billie Eillish’s massive debut we’ve set a standard for teenagers to debut with an icebreaker album which is not fair. Pop is a massive genre. However, she did break many records with her debut single, she shows much potential with that and her debut album. More power to her!!
-
May 21, 2021This is a great debut album !! The lyrics are so personal and beautiful and Olivia's voice is so beautiful and angelic.
-
May 21, 2021Es un álbum tan variado, no se estanca en un solo género, los vocals son perfectos
-
May 21, 2021Sour is definitely one of the better debut albums, and better albums of the year. While it’s not the best. You’re definitely allowed to repeat most of these songs. With songs such as ‘Brutal’, ‘Traitor’ and ‘Jealousy, Jealousy’, this album should definitely be considered a top-tier album of the year.
-
May 21, 2021Olivia is an incredible young artist! She did such a great job with this album. Variety of the songs is amazing, but the most important - lyrics. She is making a history.
-
May 21, 2021Whole album filled by feelings and talent.When you grow up with Taylor Swift i think you can have the best writing song skills

-
May 21, 2021Olivia has said she is typically a sad song ballad song writer and there are definitely those songs on the album. But she also stretched herself to create more upbeat songs such as brutal and good 4 u that are some diversity to the album.

-
Jun 1, 2021Es una gran cantante con un enorme potencial, sus singles “drivers license”, “deja vu” y “good 4 u” son muy buenos y nos da a entender que es una artista muy amplia, pero la mayoria de las canciones de SOUR hablan del mismo tema que ya toco en sus singles no exploro mas temas para hablar; Como debut fue grandioso pero para ser iconica en la industria necesita mejorar bastante
-

-
May 25, 2021Sour, for the most part, is a pop album that dips its toes into the alt-pop and bedroom pop subgenres, specifically spending most of its time in the latter. ... Rodrigo's lo-fi deep cuts that were made in the shadow of "Drivers License" can sound a bit repetitive. Her craft as a songwriter is especially evident on tracks like "Enough For You", "Happier", or "Hope Ur Ok", but the acoustic complexion these songs were going for could have benefitted from a bit more background noise.
-
May 25, 2021By the end of the album, Rodrigo has established her voice and showed listeners that she's not afraid to be vulnerable. SOUR is a strong debut that vividly illustrates the beautiful chaos of being inside a teenage girl's brain.
