    Six years of waiting, so worth it when i heard the first note of the beautiful intro Liberation. I was in awe listening to the full album. It is one of her best albums to date. She brings it by experimenting vocally and musically. She brings something for everybody out there. I am truly so proud of her as being a big fan since 1999.

    Álbum Incrível não esperava menos da princesa do pop ao lado de Britney Spears. Mostra a evolução da rainha.

    In case the general public needed further proof, "Liberation" shows Christina remains ahead of the game. Her new-found creativity symbolizes the end of an era. "Liberation" sets itself apart from her previous albums and leaves the door open to the legend's artistic rejuvenation.

    Christina Aguilera, pasaron 6 años esperando este disco y realmente valio la pena. Se nota mucho que es un album independiente y que lo haz hecho con mucho amor. Con letras muy inspiradoras y poderosas, Ritmos urbanos y POP. Ella volvio para quedarse.

    6 years not releasing an album and still comes up fresh with the current music era. Still very cohesive and out of this world vocal ability to be different in every track. It has longevity that's for sure! Maria stands up for me, alongside 10 other songs. Good job Legendtina! :D

    An amazing reintroduction to the always daring Aguilera. Always renewing herself, always trying new things. The heavily RnB and HipHop infused Liberation does just that. Heavy beats, heavy drums and heavenly vocals by Christina. A masterpiece. You dont hear this today. You dont hear a voice like this. Her instrument just moves you in a way the late Whitney, or debut Mariah did. She isAn amazing reintroduction to the always daring Aguilera. Always renewing herself, always trying new things.

    I was waiting again for Christina Aguilera and her new music, I always thought that I did not want to hear those songs that are only made to be played in a club. This album has hip hop, R & b and beautiful soul. It shows that she wanted to sing, really. Liberation is easy going. Listen Maria, Deserve and fall in line. (sick of sittin is the most rare and I love it)

    Es un disco con sonidos tan variados, se demuestra una vez más que la voz de Xtina sigue siendo poderosa e increíble. El disco es excelente, alejado del pop tradicional, pero sus baladas son lo mejor!!

    This album is such an incredible experience, especially for the ones who have been watching her growth over the years and after everything she’s been trough, Xtina finally releases one hell of a masterpiece, a work of art that could only be birthed by the artist she is today. She keeps making us all proud, beautiful work!!

    There is something for everyone, baroque pop on the title track, soul-sample with a trap beat on Kanye-assisted Maria, pop-rock (Sick of Sittin'), belting power pop (Fall in Line), reggae (Right Moves), ballads (Twice, Unless It's with You), electro-R&B (Accelerate) and dreamy Deserve. Definitely worth the wait, great comeback, Xtina.

    Undoubtedly it is the most adult and cohesive career album .. the least commercial as well. For me it was PERFECTION from start to finish .. fantastic beats and vocals, amazing lyrics ... I felt true from start to finish. The interludes are fantastic ..
    My favorite? In the split between Unless It With You and Maria that by the way is #Foda! .. Minimalist well produced, well executed    Undoubtedly it is the most adult and cohesive career album .. the least commercial as well.

    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.
