    Possui muitas músicas boas e impactantes. Apenas desnecessário ter incluido músicas antigas na versão deluxe do album.

    Lizzo shines on her major label debut. With tracks like Tempo, Juice, and Truth Hurts, it’s clear that it’s Lizzo’s party and we’re here to just enjoy it. Creativity pours out and it’s clear this is wired from creativity as opposed to commercial success.

    Lizzo's breakthrough album was also her best so far . It's an in brand declaration of positivity, self love and joy the exceeds what we've previously seen other artists do.

It's a energetic reading of an unsatisfying neglectful ex who didn't treat her like how she deserved to be,no surprise so many of us resonated with it. The vocals on this album are next level R&B… Expand

    This album is full of empowering masterpieces, Lizzo’s way to express her self love through words and rhymes just proves how capable she is to rule her world, not everyone is ready for her way to self love, but they better be cause nobody can stop her now.

    I really like when artists with powerful voices show it off, and that's what Lizzo did in this album. She has a great voice and she sure knows that... and that's it, the only thing I can say I liked about this album. It's not a bad record, but I don't see it as something I would listen to again.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Lizzo is a full package. She is very much capable of singing powerful and raw vocals. And on top of that; she easily slides on a beat with her admirable rapping abilities. This album is engulfed in self-love, confidence, and honesty. She exudes so much intense unrestrained energy and provides modernized old-school r&b, soul, doo-wop, and hip-hop. There is even a lot of pop thrown into this project as well. Another important statement is that the music is unique to her. As soon as you hear a song of hers from this solid body of work; you’ll know it’s Lizzo. This album is a timeless piece of work and the score it has on this site doesn’t much do it justice. But, if you like self-love anthems, raw/honest lyrics, and a whole lot of energy. You will definitely love this album.… Expand

    Lizzo is talented and amazing. I love her energy. She does not deserve to be body-shamed or criticized at all. This album is a cohesive and strong body of work. "Truth Hurts", "Good as Hell", and "Juice" are anthems for female empowerment and power boosters. I love these songs. "Cuz I Love You" is also a good song too. And I really love it when Lizzo plays flute when she performs her songs live.

    If you don't feel self-empowerment only staring at this album cover, probably you a'int ready to appreaciate this greatness. Ruling the year with this gorgeous work, Melissa proves us that she's not only capable to be hitmaker with an old single, but she has more skills in store for us. Flute, stage presence and charismatic as hell, Lizzo may be the new supreme that we've been missing for a while

    boring, boring, boring.
    uninspiring to say the least, should hardly be heralded as the “album of the year” by many outlets.

I may not be an expert but I don’t have to be one when I know that this album its nothing compare to other female rap albums. When this album was released I had high expectations just to have them crashing down, This album was just really basic she didn’t change the “Rap game” ( to put it like that ) she didn’t have a huge impact and she really is what you call a one hit wonder.… Expand

    Lizzo tem umas das melhores vozes da geração. seus vocais nas horas certas, os graves nos momentos certeiros ajudam muito.

    o álbum tem grandes acertos ao explorar a potência vocal da Lizzo mas também peca em não explorar novas melodias.

    Lizzo is kinky and playful too, but the most sexy thing of all is her unlimited confidence in herself. She thinks big, dreams big, and achieves it all on this album.
