    Variety of sounds, lyrics that really tell a story, impeccable voice.
    An artist who undoubtedly explores her most creative, sincere and deep side ... She leaves her comfort zone and even the safe area in the charts by making her album a mixture of sounds and lyrics that range from the seductive to the soft

    A surprisingly intimate and emotionally vulnerable album. Cabello's vocals are unique and expressive and her songwriting is top notch. Great debut record and a very promising start to her solo career.

    First let me start by saying that 'Camila' is a record much different than I expected from a girl group runaway, especially when considering the group in question is Fifth Harmony and she was effectively the lead vocalist/figure and not some fringe member. It's worth mentioning that I've got nothing against Camila or her former Fifth Harmony band sisters, but the brand of pop found inFirst let me start by saying that 'Camila' is a record much different than I expected from a girl group runaway, especially when considering the group in question is Fifth Harmony and she was effectively the lead vocalist/figure and not some fringe member. It's worth mentioning that I've got nothing against Camila or her former Fifth Harmony band sisters, but the brand of pop found in their albums is just not my style and beyond a quick listen here or there, there's never been much that resonated with me as particularly interesting or appealing. It's for these reasons that the lead single off this album, "Havana" and the content of the album itself really took me by surprise. Camila Cabello has earned the right to have "Former Fifth Harmony siren" dropped before her name, she is an artist in her own right and here's why.

    Before I dive in I want to get some things out of the way, the production here is lean and understated outside of the two singles "Havana" and "Never Be The Same", and this works beautifully for some of the gorgeous ballads [yeah, there are balladS, plural, on a debut album from a popstar in 2018, nuts right?] but causes some of the closing tracks to fall a little flat. Additionally, the speed of the album is pretty even-keeled and I won't lie, while it's a short listen, tracks 6,7,8 can feel long; prepare to either fall into your feelings if like me you live for earnest writing and emotive vocal performances or slip into a soft slumber if you expected high-octane, radio-ready pop bangers--though I do advise you against this, you will miss out on some of the most poignant deep cuts from a young popstar in years.

    That said, there's so much about this album that works--the Latin seasoning peppered through She Loves Control to Havana and sprinkled lightly on Inside Out, the charismatic and playful bounce of Camila's vocal delivery, ad libs and delicious cooing and of course, the spectacular writing for which Camila is credited on every single track along with a host of unusual co-writers [Amy Wadge?] outside of some flashy names [Justin Tranter, Ryan Tedder]. This isn't a perfect record by any means I could sit here and list a number of offenses from a technical standpoint [seriously, Camila powers this whole album virtually alone at times, what is with some of the production?] but I won't do that, what I will do is invite you to check out this heartwarming, tender and passionate debut and pay a close ear to the candidness she shares on virtually every song [even the lively Havana has the smoky line "Half of my heart is in Havana" which is an ode to her hometown, couple that with the fact Cuban-American relations aren't the best and she's not readily able to return and it's actually quite a poignant song]. In short, it sounds like Joni Mitchell and acoustic Shakira teamed up to put out an album.    … Expand

I did not expect to like the album at all, even thought that as a solo artist she would flop because in the old days her voice was very hight pitch, an entire album with a hight pitch voice was not going to work for me. The fifth harmony songs worked because they contained four other members and four other different voices. But her voice is super different on this album, so smooth and melodic. I'm really impressed! She really captivated me with this debut.… Expand

    No doubt this definitely a good album but to be honest it's a little boring. The album got many edgy lyrics and sounds but it's too soft even with the upbeat songs. Consequences is my favorite song on the album, it brings great emotion and more important, it touched me.

There were some songs like In The Dark, Something's gotta give, Into It which I expected to be more upbeat but the chorus just failed me. Overall this is not a bad album, but not too great, I was expecting more songs like Havana and the fact that she eliminated CITC out of the album is making the album less fun. As one of her biggest fan, I gotta admit, I am disappointed but anyway this album is a good start for her career, everyone made mistakes and hope that she'll do better in her second album… Expand

    Perfect combination of rhythms. 'Camila' is an album that shows from her vunerability to her confident side. For a new artist and a debut album, 'Camila' fulfills all the requirements to establish the beginning of a new Popstar.

    this album honestly screams emotions and raw energy. her number one talent has got to be her ability to make people feel what she felt while singing the songs and that's not something too many people can do. the creativity and artistry in this album can't be properly articulated. words can't do the way the songs make people feel any proper justice. i am so here for this, i am stanning forever

    It's a very coercive album, well distributed is only a half hour length but it captured attention from the first minute till the last. The album surely shows Cabello's versatility with genres also as an unique vocalist.

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

Coming from a troubled breakup of their former group "Fifth Harmony", many asked what Camila Cabello would be preparing for her solo debut and the response was not disappointing.
    After a series of promotional singles and a makeover, Cabello finally managed to deliver her debut album, formerly known as "The Hurting, the Healing, the Loving". The self-titled "Camila" already holds the historic record for debut album with more # 1 on iTunes around the world and owner of the hit "Havana" which is already in the five weeks in second place on American Billboard. The album, released under the Epic label, has its own compositions and one of its main collaborators, Frank Dukes, is one of the big names in the American Hip Hop industry.
    Marked by the sensitivity and the cohesive form in which the work presents itself, the album follows between ballads and songs with great potential of hit. The first track "Never Be The Same", delivered during the pre-sale of the album, is the exact synthesis of what Camila can offer. "All These Years" is light, despite being one of the most personal of the album, does not present an exceptional performance beyond the sweet vocals of Hair. The sequel follows with "She Loves Control", "Havana" and "Inside Out", the most radiophonic part of the album and tempered with Latin rhythms, basically a junction of everything that is currently successful. The album slows down with "Consequences" where a piano solo is enough for Camila and her vocals again are in absolute focus. "Real Friends" repeats the same formula used in "All These Years" and could easily be sung by Selena Gomez. "Something's Gotta Give," another great ballad, must be remembered for the way Camila exposes her fragile side without sounding weak. And finally, "In The Dark" and "Into It" conclude the album in a charismatic and confident way.
    The album has a great commercial appeal and perhaps its biggest defect is the lack of boldness and creativity taking into account the fact that Camila follows the whole time by the easy way and by models already ready, but that does not mean that the work is bad and does not deserve to be heard, for a debut, Camila delivered something satisfactory and certainly deserves praise for it.    … Expand

    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.
