    Xtina is back with a genuine masterpiece since her "bionic". Liberation, as its name says by itself, is about to be free after years chained. Aguilera show us she still own the game and put her soul and heart in this new project.

    Es su tercer mejor álbum. Creo que forma 'La Trinidad' junto con 'Back To Basics' y 'Stripped'. Lo mejor: Maria, Dreamers/Fall In Line, Unless It's with you.

    Not sure if it is because you took six years in between your last album and your new album, or if you’re in a different place in your life, but there’s something very special about “Liberation,” easily one of the year’s best albums though it’s barely been out for a day.

    WHAT A TIME TO BE ALIVE & TO BE A “DAY ONE” #FIGHTER. Y’all #Liberation had me sobbing at the end with ‘Unless It’s With You’ -NO LIE! Understand from B2B was my ultimate and this song is its better twin. @xtina gave me everything I want & need with this album! I am beyond proud!

    Big come back. Liberation is Aguilera's masterpiece. It was worth the wait. One of the best: Maria, Deserve, Masochist, Accelerate and Unless It's With You.

    Liberation is the best album of christina aguilera.
    the voice and range is out of this world.
    Liberation is a masterpiece a caviar ratchet.
    Chistina shows the big star she is and why she is the best singer of our generation
    Xtina is a legend and wonderful artist

    This is Christina's much anticipated comeback and she nailed it. Great vocals and empowering music. She worked with talented people and she created a very different album that will get people talking about it.
    She is back to her soul and urban roots with a more mature sound and cool lyrics. She doesn't sound forced or pretentious. She is honest and finally liberated from the troubled eras

    The production is excellent and there's something for everyone. Welcome back Christina!

    Liberation is nothing short of a masterpiece, it has come at a time where music was lacking vocally. Christina never fails to show her versatility and amazing voice. Absolutely love this album.

    No doubt, this is one of the best albums of 2018. It's sincere, funny, liberating and thought-provoking. Maria is powerful melodies set the tone for the album. Deserve is a very sympathetic song. Generally speaking, every song on this album is suitable. The message is clear: let's release it!

    O unicos defeitos dessa obra prima foi não ter mais clipes, mais divulgação e o Grammy da Xtina e a filha Demi Lovato.

    Such an amazing album!!! Liberation by Christina Aguilera deserves GRAMMYs. The vocal is on point and heavenly. To those who always think she is over-singing, give this album a try, so many layers of vocals that prove that she is still the voice of our generation. The songs are so addictive, I have them on replay non-stop. Best album of the year!

    An album that keeps pace with modern pop trends while remaining true to Aguilera’s past.

    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.
