    Okay, let me be honest. I can say that the album wasn’t worth waiting 4 years for, BUT it’s still a nice pop-album with few bangers.

    My faves: A Sweeter Place, Cut You Off, LYTLM, Vulnerable, Let Me Get Me (it’s hard to pick a top three)

    It is an album with danceable and calm melodies. Rare is a mixture of guitars, bass and sounds maybe from the 80's and 90's. The album has good lyrics and melodies, which is a good experience. Personally, it is an album with good potential.

    Literally an album full of bops! It’s insane to see Selena's growth as a person and as an artist through this album. Definitely her most personal album which connects to everyone who is listening to it. There are a few songs that aren’t that remarkable but most of them have great potential. If you are wondering if you should or not listen to it, then you surely should listen.

    Selena Gomez marks a triumphant return with “Rare”. Her vocals are breathy and delicate, a perfect compliment to the unique rhythmic beats and synths of “Rare”. Stand outs include opener, “Rare” a pop perfection self love anthem, “Lose You to Love Me”, a tender ballad about leaving a toxic relationship, and the albums dreamy and emotional, “Sweeter Place” featuring Kid Cudi.

    Rare is Selena's best but yet most controversial album. She really proved how mature she is but antis keep saying the album is not showing any growth.

    ‘Rare’ is a fantastic and cohesive pop album! It shows Selena’s growth personally and musically since her previous record ‘Revival’.

The infectious dance beats from songs such as ‘Dance Again’ complement well with the slower and more relaxed sounding songs such as ‘Crowded Room’. Selena hadn’t released a full album of music since her 2015 ‘Revival’ but within the, just over, 4 years she released droplet singles which all feature on a deluxe edition of the album with all of them feeling at home on the record. It seems near impossible for Selena to top this album in her discography but Selena is all about growth and I’m pretty sure this will be seen once again in the future. Expand

She has a lot more to say and the songs are generally well produced and well written. It shows that the focused on herself more and she made a very honest and heartfelt album. Look at her now is very slick and confident tune on self empowerment. Rare, Ring,Let Me get me are also other songs that show a lot of confidence, empowerment and self assurance and i love this coming from Selena. The ballad Lose you to love me is probably the best song of her career as it showcases maturity and vulnerability that we have not seen from Selena ever before.

    After five years, Selena came back with a new album and it blew my mind. It's just wonderful.

    Is one of her most beautiful music projects. But something missing in this album, after 'Bad Liar', 'Fetish', 'Wolves, I was expecting a different type of sounds, I love it, though. Maturity and vocal growth is one of his successes

    Rare finds Selena Gomez at her most confident and - on the majority of the tracks - at the top of her game.

It’s breezy and mature, with some welcome surprises in stylistic choices. It’s not a revolutionary record, but it’s expertly constructed and a pleasant listening experience - even if it does tend to be too repetitive at times. Highlights include the two exceptional singles, the brilliant opening track (one of Gomez’s best songs to date), and the stylish Crowded Room. Expand

    Rare is a pretty good solid album and Selena did it well this time too. It has not just bops or banger tracks but it's more like a kinda "mid-tempo" album in its wholeness. And I must say, I like it. The theme of the album is finding out how important we are and don't let others try to make us feel bad.

Lose You To Love Me, Vulnerable and Let Me Get Me are absolutely my fav. Expand

    Super and mature album from Selena Gomez, her best work yet. Mostly strong songs (Vulnerable, Dance Again, A Sweeter Place, Lose you to Love Me) with very few filler songs (only towards the end of the album).

    Can't wait see what she comes up with next

    um bom álbum, muito bem trabalhado, porém ele demonstra que Selena gomez ainda precisa evoluir e aprender muito para chegar a produzir o álbum do ano, esse definitivamente não é o álbum do ano, porém ele não deixa de ser coeso e bem trabalhado

    This album is totally a grower. It might not be as awesome as it gets later on at first but is definitely an improvement from her previous work.

    A very solid body of work that translates the story someone who started over after a stormy period in her life. Honestly, I only checked it out because it got good reviews. I'm not really a Selena fan, but I will for sure add quite a bunch of these songs to my playlists. A very chill album if you're not paying attention but the lyrics are very personal.

    Rare continually teases intriguing forays into leftfield pop, but so many of the album’s experiments come off as just that, without ever crystallizing with memorable hooks.

    The record she has delivered to kickstart a new decade is a career defining release, and from a pop star who is firmly back on top of her game.

    While none of these 13 songs attempt the subtle weirdness of “Bad Liar” and the emotional thesis—self-love!—can be a bit one-note, Rare is the 27-year-old’s most cohesive record to date. ... But it’s difficult to come away from Rare with any real perspective on who Gomez is other than that she doesn’t want to be the person she was, whoever that similarly mysterious shadow was.
