    It is so amazing how she is able to be this versatile artist that she is and bring in each album, a different sonority with a different Christina.
    Liberation has quality, has soul, has talent.
    The combination of the tracks Liberation, Searching For Maria e Maria are, definitely, the heart of the album and one of the bests moments in her career.
    No doubt, it's the best female album of 2018!

    The best album ever released this year, Christina shows us her flawless singing in various musical rhythms, R & B, Soul, Hip-Hop and Pop. She deserves all the good. She is amazing!! Maria, Fall in Line, Masochist e Deserves the best of the whole album.

    Only Christina Aguilera has the balls to make an album like this. She explores, she experiments, she DELIVERS. Her voice is at her best, and the sound is sick. 'Deserve' has to be a single, THE best song of the year.

    Liberation is a beautifully done, cohesive album. She plays with many different textures/tones of her voice which i loved. lyrically it was both deep/introspective as well as flirty/fun. I LOVE this album. There are not many albums I can listen to from beginning to end without any skips and truly enjoy the journey and story being told. It's everything you'd want from a Christina Aguilera album.

    Here's an album that's fresh, sexy, and lirycally intriguing, too. Liberation is mature, ambitious, and very coheisve. There's not one weak song on this album. Aguilera delivered another release meant for cult status.

    Acompanho a Christina desde o seu grande álbum Stripped, que assim como a mim, ajudou a muitas outras pessoas a superarem as dificuldades e não abaixarem a cabeça, após tantos trabalhos que nos dá orgulho de escutar e compartilhar, ela veio com Liberation algo totalmente diferente do que esperávamos e simplesmente surpreendente. Um álbum maravilhoso e inspirador

    Christina Aguilera has one of the greatest voices of all time. Her ability to improvise and interpret her music is nearly unparalleled. Her voice transcends. She constantly amazes me. Her lives performances are breath-taking; often times, they surpass her studio recordings. Most pop artists cannot do that. Her range, her execution, her performance, everything is sublime.

    Christina Aguilera is my queen. Apart from being beautiful, She is the voice of our generation.
    She's my inspiration and my idol. She's writes songs that her fans can relate to. The songs that I can relate to are 'Unless It's With You' and 'Maria'
    She's getting a lot of st because of her weight... You know what? I have gained weight too and she loves her body and that has inspired me to    Christina Aguilera is my queen. Apart from being beautiful, She is the voice of our generation.

    The best album! Estoy muy contento,se escuchan muchos sonidos nuevos y muy frescos! A demás sus colaboraciones son muy buenas y es algo que nunca habíamos escuchado de la reina. Fall in line es arte por donde se mire! Me gusta que siempre se reinventa y pueda cantar diferentes géneros.

Whitney is also a beautiful artist!… Expand

    Desde Stripped, este tal vez es su segundo álbum mas personal. tiene algo de cada disco, la libertad de Stripped, un concepto muy solido como el de Back to Basics , la experimentación de Bionic y ese renacimiento de Lotus. Sin dudar, ¡ella lo hizo otra vez !

    Liberation never reaches the heights fans likely wanted from Xtina, it serves as a pleasant refresher for a voice that has earned its place in the annals of pop history. That said, it’s a bit sad to feel like her finest moments are, at least for now, also in her past.

    Aguilera lets her talent fly as high as her freak flag, solving pop’s current obsession with box-ticking by nudging their lines into shapes more her liking.
