    Gostei muito desse álbum, mostrou uma Nelly madura, que não precisa recorrer a músicas apelativas pra entregar um álbum lindo. com uma sonoridade adequada pra época e acima de tudo com muito bom gosto. destaco as canções " Phoenix " e " Sticks & Stones "

    Longevity is often characterised by reinvention in music, yet The Ride stalls in its attempted inventiveness, instead finding success in its most pared down and familiar moments.

    The problem with The Ride is just that it’s a lot duller than it should be, and it feels even more disappointing given that her most successful work is also her most eccentric.

    This is unabashedly a pop album, full of big melodies and simple metaphors, that adds just a bit of analog fuzz to her usually pristine sound.
