    Apesar de eu estar esperanod muito mais, o álbum cumpre com o estilo da Meg e tudo que ela vem criando. O álbum é bem dançante e tudo nele me lembra a Megan, além de ninguém menos do que Beyoncé estar nele, já é um grande motivo pra dar 10 pra isso.

    Some of these users came just to hate after seeing her get good critic scores lol. This album is versatile and shows her range. It’s fun, sexy, and impressive. The production is amazing. Great samples and hard bars. Very proud of megan. Some people were wishing on her downfall but this album proves she’s here to stay.

    O álbum é coeso e armonioso
    Brinca entre o r&b e hip hop com maestria, uma grande sucessora ao trono de NICKI Minaj

    She did what she had to do. She said what she had to said. She dragged who she had to drag! She served and left no crumbs. Personally, there are no skips for me. I love how her flow switched up multiple times. I'm honestly so proud of her and I wish her good luck and success. More fortunes to come, Megan Thee Stallion

    The album was fire I loved it. Megan showed true growth from the Rich Rachtet days to now. Megan showed versatility and exemplified plenty of different flows and styles.

    'Good News' is the Album of the Year; Megan thee stallion delivers with excellent wordplay, sharp delivery and an unrelenting assertive tone to successfully capture the audience's attention. It is truly a musical masterpiece.

    it's the worst and most boring album I've listened to in my life. She doesn't got anything that makes a rapper. She doesn't have bars, punchlines nor the metaphors. Her flow doesn't change throughout the album which makes it boring. Her singing skills are horrible, she shouldn't do this again. That album is really basic and she's basic herself.

    Absolutely blown away by this album. Megan’s best to date. Experimenting with pop, R&B and reggae, she shows her versatility. Love her!

    A top notch debut album. It will make you feel as though you’re in control of your life even when you feel like spiraling

    An absolutely stellar debut album by a rapper with a ton of talent and potential. Meg's quippy one-liners and demanding delivery make her a real presence behind the mic. Working with a number of great producers and collaborators, everyone from Juicy J to SZA really helps elevate this album to the next level for me.

    The crisp production makes this feel like a well-thought-out and intentional release, rather than a rushed cash-grab. However, it’s this poise that makes Good News exactly that: good. When held up to past releases like Tina Snow and Fever, Megan’s larger-than-life personality over the Dirty South production she is most familiar with is not showcased to its full potential.

    When Megan moves away from her standard lyrical fare, perpetuating her beef with Tory Lanez on opening track Shots Fired or penning the poppy tune Don’t Rock Me To Sleep, the results are some of the best moments on the album, and if these aspects of her style had been explored some more it could have made for a more diverse LP, but Good News is still chock-full of catchy hooks, stellar verses and feisty attitude.

    “Good News” proves Megan’s prodigious talent, but it also suggests that, with a bit more digging, this gem could emit an even more prismatic shine.
