    Her most impressive feat yet. The work is cohesive, and bodes perfectly with the niche she’s cut out for herself. No bad song at all.

    Selena continues to amazing me through the years, outdoing herself with every album, showing her growth and maturity. It was actually not at all what I expected but in the end I'm glad she surprised us with this meticulous masterpiece of her carrer until today. I know for a fact that she has a lot of potencial and I can't wait to see what the future holds for her beautiful soul.

    The best Selena's album so far. There isn't even one song that I didn't like. But I can highlight "Ring" and "Sweeter Place". Such an interesting and new style. I'm a hundred percent sure it will get at least one Grammy nomination.

    Confident powerfull and positive.. My favourites are A sweeter Place, Let me get me and people you know but its changing like every two hours. Every song has their own story and -you can feel it- it’s real. I think that's the most important thing; a story... and a real story.

    It’s absolutely amazing. The songs are all different and you can tell Selena focused on the lyrics more on this album. It’s so relatable and just shows how Selena has grown and matured as an artist. This is her story and it’s her time to tell it!

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Rare a is a very beautiful album. It reflect the realness of the artist, the tracks are nothing alike but they are still compact to each other. Also the sound, the vibe it gives is so cool. It's new to ears and that's what makes it rare. The lyrcism is beautiful too. I totally love the album! Expand

    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.
