    After a semi-underperformance of a debut, Camila Cabello bounced right back with "Havana" to prove everyone that she was a force to be reckoned with– and she's done it again. 'Camila' is the definition of a flawless debut. Every song has earned its place and contributes to the overall theme of love and heartbreak throughout the album. Highlights include: "Consequences," "Something's GottaAfter a semi-underperformance of a debut, Camila Cabello bounced right back with "Havana" to prove everyone that she was a force to be reckoned with– and she's done it again. 'Camila' is the definition of a flawless debut. Every song has earned its place and contributes to the overall theme of love and heartbreak throughout the album. Highlights include: "Consequences," "Something's Gotta Give," and "In the Dark" – 3 of the more moody songs on the album. Camila showed up and showed out with this one and made a name for herself in a world of Pop music with nameless faces. Congrats, Camila, on an amazing debut! Expand

    Leaving the group was the best move she could made, at first I got upset but now I can see how good was that when she came with this masterpiece. This album is funny, raw and real, I love it.

    She did THAT with this album, she's getting a part of what se deserves. i'm so proud of her, facing her fear, and showing to the world what she's capable of. She still has a long journey ahead and i'll be here watching her sucess.
    ps: i couldn't stop listening to it since it released.

    Este es un increíble album. Camila brilla en el. Es un album que entrega calidad de letras, sonidos y melodías. Lo mejor que pudo hacer esta chica fue salirse de Fifth Harmony, el mundo se estaba perdiendo a una excelente artista.

    OMG this album is amazing, a great album, in a moment of pop, when the female artist are making country/pop, Camila Cabello is releasing a album diferent, is a diary, with latin sounds, emotional ballads, & for me is better thant the FH discography, GREAT DEBUT.

    Escala cada punta de los sentimientos, desde lo más triste a lo más feliz. Contiene canciones muy sentimentales y bailables, buena producción y vocales. Demuestra excelentemente su poder como escritora.

    This is most solid debut ive seen from any artist since Kendrick Lamars Good Kid M.a.a.d City in 12 which was a masterpiece. The lyrics and vocals are on point and her style is so unique ive only seen her evolve for a genre known for **** but her and lorde stand out.

    CAMILA is the most wonderful debut album i've heard since Guns N Roses' ''Appetite x Destruction'' (of course, you can't compare them), but the Cuban girl prooved she is better than a small girl band.

    Absolutely amazing. Her voice sounds perfect in every single song and the lyrics just touch your soul. It feels like she’s telling her story through every track and sharing a piece of her heart with us. Definitely the best debut album I’ve heard in a while.

    O álbum é uma pop- perfection, um dos melhores debuts pra uma popgirl, a melhor coisa que Camila fez foi largar aquela banda fracassada, agora ela pode brilhar sem medo de ofuscar as dançarinas.

There aren't any generic pop songs, and by that I mean every track sounds directly personal to her, and I can tell that she means every single word. Although there's nothing wrong with making a song strictly for it to be a chart hit, I admire that she took a different, riskier route. She toyed with the sound effects/instrumentals, which would catch me off guard in the best way possible. And she did some very unique vocal acrobats, amplifying the emotion she clearly wanted to convey, as well as the respect I have for her as a singer. The replay value for this album is absolutely astounding. For a debut album, Camila 100% nailed it - and then some! Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. If I had to describe "CAMILA" in just one word, I would choose, storytelling. Is like you're reading a book and each song is a different chapter.
    There are Latin/Caribbean vibes on songs such as SLC and IO, which will definitely make your hips happy. But for me, the raw vocals, the simplistic but elegant production, and the poetic and highly relatable lyrics on C and SGG, take the album to another level.
    Camila Cabello's vocals and lyrics have ability to trigger emotions you didn't even know existed.
    Therefore, if you're gonna listen to CAMILA, which you definitely should, prepare yourself for an emotional roller-coaster. It will make you smile, it will make you dance, it will make cry, and most importantly, it will make you remember.

    Living between two cultures can be alienating, but Camila Cabello packages her experience as a Cuban-American seamlessly into pure pop perfection.

    “Never Be the Same” proves that Cabello doesn’t need a mammoth voice. The love-is-a-drug lyric she’s singing is dumb, but she sells it so joyfully that you don’t even notice, and its wonderfully breathy, high-register hook ensures “Havana” won’t be her last solo hit.

    While Cabello stands out on the more fiery tracks, she also shines in subtlety.
