    I think this album is very well produced and done. I mean, there are many different music influences but at the same time there is strong cohesion in the album. From the saxophones in "That's My Girl" to the reggae of "All In My Head", to trap of "Work From Home", to tropical house (The Life, Write On Me, I Lied, Squeeze and Scared Of Happy) to urban ("Not That Kinda Girl") to synthpop ofI think this album is very well produced and done.

I still think that Camila is the worst singer of the group and she still has too many solos, but the parts are given in a better way than Reflection!… Expand

    Felizmente, Fifth Harmony vem com um hinario cheio de ritmos não inéditos, mas com uma melodia viciante como a de Thats My Girl, Scared Of Happy, entre outros hinos poderosos. Buy on iTunes!!!

    This album is by far better than the group's first one, "Reflection", with a lot of possible hits and really catchy songs. Their vocals are on point and is one of the biggest highlights of "7/27". Fifth Harmony has shown with this album that they remain for another year as the best and the biggest girl group in the world.

    Muito bom! Conseguiram se superar, trazem músicas incríveis, arrasando nas melodias e nas letras, super bem produzido, solos bem distribúidos, ótimas colaborações, tudo maravilhoso! Esse álbum representa melhor cada uma delas e eu estou orgulhosa demais! Valeu todos os centavos que eu investi nele.

    Podemos nos vangloriar de 7/27! Diferente do álbum anterior delas, Reflection, ele não é composto somente por músicas festivas e vocais agitados, mas com músicas mais tranquilas e com vocais mais calmos mas sem deixar as batidas marcantes no fundo de lado, deixando muito difícil não se apaixonar pelo álbum.

    O álbum está maravilhoso! Totalmente diferente de tudo que poderiamos esperar deste grupo. Com melodias dignas e viciantes (não por serem grudentas mas por serem boas e de qualidade) e melodias contagiantes, 7/27 nos mostra um lado diferente e muito bem visto pelo seu público.

    Fifth Harmony's sophomore album "7/27" is a monster of a banger. Unlike its predecessor, "Reflection", "7/27" is a fearless attempt at maturity. It explores themes such as love, heartbreak, and self-actualization. As well as the group's strong point - female empowerment (most notable are the tracks That's My Girl and Not That Kinda Girl, which has legendary Missy Elliott on the track).Fifth Harmony's sophomore album "7/27" is a monster of a banger.

As well as the group's strong point - female empowerment (most notable are the tracks That's My Girl and Not That Kinda Girl, which has legendary Missy Elliott on the track). Fifth Harmony has set themselves apart from their current counterparts by discovering their own unique sound, instead of wallowing in pop purgatory by sticking with sloppy ballads and forming their image according to the 'girl group stereotype'. The album itself is strong when it comes to the hard-hitting uptempo, but also very vulnerable and soft-spoken when it comes to more sensitive topics (No Way, Squeeze, Gonna Get Better). It is difficult to deny that in a patriarchally structured music industry, the empowering Fifth Harmony is breaking the scene.… Expand

    The best album from one girlband I ever heard. Well crafted beats, lyrics very well composed (thanks, Tinashe, to be here!), and very well distributed soils. It has everything to be one of the best albums of the year.

    I already expected it to be an amazing album, but I was pleasantly surprised.
    It was way better than I could have ever imagined.

    A palavra INCRÍVEL não é suficiente para descrever esse albúm, as meninas amadureceram muito musicalmente, de longe muito melhor que o Reflection. Os solos são perfeitamente divididos, cada uma delas mostra seus maravilhosos vocais e as harmonias são ótimas. O albúm foi super ultra bem produzido trazendo ritmos e batidas contagiantes e gostosos de se ouvir e letras maravilhosas! Perfeito!

    O álbum é realmente muito bom! Finalmente encontramos algo menos genérico e comum, o álbum apresenta grandes canções com letras e ritmos incomparáveis. Claramente podemos ver que as notas usadas com 0 para esse cd não apresentam fundamento e sentido. Um dos melhores álbuns de 2016, perdendo apenas para Beyoncé Ariana Grande.

    Fifth Harmony não tá aqui de bricadeira não arrazaram! I Lied, Dope, No Way são destuidoras, e That's My Girl, All In My Head (Flex), Not That Kinda Girl são hinos! As outras musicas do album não ficam muito atras não!! Album super coeso e bem produzido, com boa distribuição de solos e otimos vocais!

    Com melodias menos genéricas mas seguindo o que está na moda nos dias de hoje, o Tropical House, e com composições mais trabalhadas, 7/27 demonstra realmente que Fifth Harmony amadureceu de um álbum para o outro, não tirando os méritos do Reflection, porém, 7/27 realmente demonstra a "cara" das garotas do Fifth Harmony.

Destaques: All In My Head (Flex) que tendo Dinah e Lauren como vocais principais trouxe um amadurecimento bastante notório para a faixa; No Way com Lauren comandando os vocais foi genial, seus vocais mais "obscuros" trouxeram um intimismo sem tamanho para a música; Gonna Get Better demonstrou toda a potência vocal e a emoção que a voz de Ally pode ter e transmitir e I Lied que houve uma sincronia harmônica dos vocais incrivelmente surpreendedora.… Expand

    Great album that shows the groups growth. That's My Girl, Dope, and I lied are real stand outs on the album. Given the quintet had a lot more creative control on this album i feel this is a better representation of who Fifth Harmony are and What message they want to convey.

    At the outset, what a major step-up from their debut album 'Reflection'!
    Like Reflection, 7/27 also talks about empowerment, but it has its vulnerable sides. Like the girls described it is close to what they went through the last year. The glo up in vocals, production, solo distribution, tonality, everything is just amazing! It is like they have included the best picks they had.

The glo up in vocals, production, solo distribution, tonality, everything is just amazing! It is like they have included the best picks they had. This album is a perfect combination of upbeat, mid-tempo, and slow ballad. It couldn't be more perfect. They have found their sound and people are genuinely loving it. This labum has given the girls the chance to showcase their vocals that some of them couldnt do in the last album; and boy did they? Answer is yes! All the five girls equally shine and stand out in the songs. There is not one better than the other. These girls have worked hard for this and they deserve all the success. 7/27 is the best pop album to have released in a long time and that too by the biggest girl group in the world right now. I love it.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Esse álbum é muito diferente de outras eras musicais delas. Apesar de haver alguns deslizes como a falta de solos para algumas integrantes como Dinah em "The Life" e Ally em "I Lied, e também um destaque maior para Lauren que lidera grande parte das músicas, o albúm segue uma linhagem tecno tropical em grande parte das músicas que pode ser bem adotado por qualquer que não queira generalizar o gênero como pop… Expand

    Pop perfection! The perfect mix of songs to dance to & ballads. That's My Girl is a girl-anthem, and one of the best songs on the album. All In My Head (Flex) has awesome island vibes, definitely one of the best songs of the summer. I Lied & Dope are also AMAZING songs that people can NOT miss. Props to the best girl group of the world as in right now.
