    The lyrics in this are something else. Incredibly childsh and cringe inducing. Personally, I think Yummy is better lyrically then when he tries to get "deep" in here. Some of the worst:

    "Shout-out to your mom and dad for makin' you Standin' ovation, they did a great job raisin' you" "Ooh, there's so much chemistry Like a chemist, how you finishin' my sentences" "I'm available

    "Shout-out to your mom and dad for makin' you
    Standin' ovation, they did a great job raisin' you"

    "Ooh, there's so much chemistry
    Like a chemist, how you finishin' my sentences"

    "I'm available (Yeah-yeah)
    Oh, yes I am (Yeah-yeah)
    I'm available (Yeah-yeah)
    Yeah, for you I am
    Don't mean to sound desperate"

    "Drew House slippers on with a smile on my face"

    ("Deep" poetry... written by a 10 year old?):
    "Always rain the most in April
    Every scale needs to be stable
    Earth keeps spinnin' around, we're breathin'
    So thankful"

    (Here he spends the whole chorus rhyming ME with ME):
    "When you come around me
    Treat me like you miss me
    Even though you've been with me
    So when you come around me
    Do me like you miss me
    Even though you've been with me
    When you come around me
    Treat me like you miss me
    Even though you've been with me
    So when you come around me
    Do me like you miss me
    Even though you've been with me
    So when you come around me
    Do me like you miss me"

    (A few more deep thoughts from Mr. Bieber):
    "I'm goin' through changes
    I'm goin' through changes
    Though I'm goin' through changes
    Don't mean that I'll change"

    "Rollin' eyes back in my head, make my toes curl, yeah, yeah"

    (How... romantic?):
    "I'll be your punching bag, hit me with all of your might"

    (You're her WHAT):
    "Yeah, I'm your plug Whatever you need, I'll make sure you get enough And when your battery gets low I'ma be the one to charge you up" Unfortunely, there's a character limit. But oh well, you get the point!

    This album shows his maturity and growth and his vocals have improved significantly. He keeps reinventing himself with every album and that’s why he’s a real ARTIST.

    I didn’t like the album, what is all this yummy bullsh1t? It is so disappointing because Justin Bieber has the opportunity to EVOLVE, all this generic trash just reminds me the 2005 I don’t know 2010 maybe, so sad we are in 2020 I don’t understand why all these artists are giving us this kind of music, do something INOVATIVE

    Depois da era Purpose e de quase 5 anos parado, confesso que não sabia o que esperar apenas que a próximo álbum deveria ser muito bom para superar o anterior, e ele conseguiu, as novas músicas tem uma vibe que particularmente eu amo, que é o R&B(ieber). As parcerias do álbum estão sensacionais, Travis e Post eu amo vocês. Os vocais com sempre impecáveis, foram bem trabalhados.

    Justin is an amazing talented Artist. He’s outdone himself again. This album has great production, his voice has matured and is lyrically better than his previous album Purpose (purpose was still amazing) I think this is his BEST album no doubt. It was totally worth the wait and I can’t wait to see him on tour. I’m officially a Justin Bieber fan now

    Changes has a clear direction, theme, flow, and feel to it that shows Justin’s growth as an artist. The album is cohesive, full of beautiful melodies and cool R&B beats that could win Justin the title of King of R&B in the modern day music industry. Absolutely excellent body of work.

    IT’S PERFECT. We have been waiting for this album for so long and i’m so happy Justin came back to R&B, being his roots. The fact that Post Malone, Travis Scott and Kehlani are on the album makes it even better.

    Very cohesive... Production-wise and lyrically might be his best album yet! Justin is blending R&B and Pop so well together and he keeps surprising with the crisp clear vocals. His falsettos are perfect too. The album is a solid 9.5 to me.

    This is exactly what I wanted justin to do. He’s doing what he wants to do now. No more of that generic pop, we’ve got r&b back, or should I say r&bieber. This sounds even better than the journals project, a total step up. He’s outdone himself and it was the perfect time to drop such a romantic album-valentines day. He better keep up the good work.

    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.
