    Changes marked Justin's staggering move to R&B. The instrumentation felt softer, a lot of reverbs, and calming; but then the vocal came in along with lethargic and noisy beats.

    The whole album is soooooo repetitive, every song sounds unfinished, and exactly the same. Every song literally sounds identical, except mixed differently, and if it’s not that every other song sounds like a continuation of the last one. Very rudimentary, and basic, it has a very 2009/10 vibe with the pop / R&B hybrid that we saw in “My world 2.0.” In conclusion, its 2020, not 2010.

    First of all, I’ve listened to everything; the problem here is that most of them are extremely similar in the way they sound, so it’s almost like the same song over and over again. Secondly, “Running Over” is just a blatant rip-off of the song “Synergy” by Asher Monroe. It’s exactly THE SAME beat. Listen and compare.

Was hoping Yummy was some sort of fake-out situation, making you think that the album was one thing then later turning out to be completely different, but I should have known not to expect that much thought being put into this. Songs sounded the same, lyrics were so predictable I could guess what they were before they were “sung” (using that word very generously here), etc... truly unremarkable. Expand

What a lot of reviewers and critics don’t seem to understand is that this album is more-so for his wife than his listeners. He speaks about every aspect of his relationship throughout the album with decent features and great overall production. This is more of an R&B type album with of course pop thrown around in there too and it really allows the listener to feel Justin Bieber’s emotions as he articulates them with a beautiful singing voice and beats that fit accordingly. Definitely my favorite Bieber album not just because it’s new but because it’s actually quite chill to listen to. People may call this album “immature” but I find it to be perfectly suited for this part of the timeline within Justin’s life. Expand

    A promising album, but Bieber don't make a extraordinary job, the album is really confuse and tiring.
    The beginning is so good, but after 4 tracks, this become so wearing to listen.
    The "Yummy" remix is so unnecessary, I think that is just to remember how much worst that song is
    So, 4 is only for the producers hard work.

    As you can see, I gave it a 4
    You may wonder why...
    It's Because that this album is just one dimensional, the lyrics sounds like it's written by a primary school student who fall in love for the first time.
    The instrumentals are just OK, nothing special but carried this album from this messy presentation.
    It's called Changes, but did something actually change in Justin's style or content? No!

    Péssimo. Nada original, um album cheio de batidas de trap que cansam qualquer pessoa de ouvir. É o Justin Bieber sendo Justin Bieber, ou seja, nada inovador. Ele vai ter que conviver com o fato do melhor album dele ter sido o album em que os unicos hits são para a Selena Gomez.

    This album is mediocre. For a body of work we waited 5 years for, it's nothing special. Lyrically it's one of his worst, and most of the songs sound the same. There are a few good songs. Not amazing, but good. It feels as if he was rushed to put out something, and came up with something quite generic.

Intitulado "Changes", o quinto álbum do Canadense tenta mudanças trazendo batidas que flertam com o trap e vocais afinados.

    Após cinco anos de seu dançante e contagiante álbum Purpose, Bieber retorna em ritmo mais lento. Intitulado "Changes", o quinto álbum do Canadense tenta mudanças trazendo batidas que flertam com o trap e vocais afinados. O cantor enquadra Changes no estilo r&bieber propondo a quem ouve uma expectativa ao estilo.

    Os acertos ficam por conta das faixas "Habitual" e "Get Me", que fazem jus ao estilo proposto e seguem uma inteligente linha exploratória musical do cantor, com pano de fundo bem construído e química de acertos nos vocais. Mesmo na ausência de melismas, a linha mais romântica do álbum não decepciona, "All Around Me", "E.T.A" e "Confirmation", trazem um instrumental simples e bem enquadrado com os agudos elevados a excelência pelo cantor, e por fim "That's What Love Is" que passa pela mesma construção das músicas anteriores demonstrando influência de cantores noventista do estilo. Embora tudo isso, o álbum perde força com, "Forever" "Intentions" "Running Over", "Second Emotion" todas em colaboração, que despencam sobre o trap contemporâneo, que em sub-graves não apresentam o tempero necessário para elevar o quinto trabalho do cantor.

    O retorno da estrela global que detinha alta expectativa sofreu um banho de água fria, muito em função de sua tentativa de emplacar hits como em seu último álbum.

    Bieber tenta monstrar seu amadurecimento direcionando cem por cento de cada faixas a sua esposa, com letras românticas e que revelam seu incontestável amor a senhora Bieber. Entretanto, a repetição do início ao fim do mesmo tópico acaba limitando o álbum à nichos que estejam na mesma situação do cantor o que para alguns pode se tornar repetitivo.

    Há preciosidade em Changes, mas no meio de tanto "mais do mesmo", você terá que separar as jóias do álbum em uma playlist se quiser ter uma boa bieber experience.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. After like four years we've finally gotten a new album. Since the first time Justin announced his album, Twitter has been hating, then yummy came, which in my opinion is a catchy bop, although I do understand why some people wouldn't like it, but y'all took it upon yourselves to hate on this song so much, I've never seen a song get this much hate, maybe baby but at least y'all acknowledge baby is a bop. Anyways Justin released Get Me, later Intentions, which I obviously really got into. Before the album came out I kind of didnt want to get my expectations to high, especially since of all the hate on Twitter I started thinking maybe it wasn't that good. Anyways so the album came out and Changes did what it had to do! From the first song I was really intrigued in the album, then then I heard a baby in the end of All Around Me. I'm over here shocked. All the songs truly belong together, there was a theme and it was followed. Listening to the album in order is the best way to listen honestly, they all blend in together, it's amazing. Hearing Yummy in the album hit different though, a whole bop! Don't care what people say. Anyways, come around me best song on changes, I think. Expand

    R&B is where Justin thrives. Killed it in journals and he killed it with Changes. Haters are going to hate, get off the hate trend, put your pride aside and give it a listen. Stay open minded and keep your biased opinions away. Give it a chance. Anyone that actually **** with r&b would **** with this album.

    While Bieber's voice still sounds like that of a mid- to late-teen, singing seems to come more naturally to him, and his falsetto pleas are neither bitter nor entitled, strictly genuine and adult.

    It’s a record in total lust and fealty to Hailey; you’ll probably want to duck out to use the bathroom halfway through.

    Artists can certainly grow up and mature without losing their edge or creative spark. Changes, however, is ultimately a transitional record that finds Bieber navigating how to reconcile adulthood with pop stardom—and discovering that, at least in his case, this merger is a tricky one.
