    WOW !!! There’s not enough words I can put together to explain how good this album is. Selena has been through so much over the years and which each track you can tell how much she’s grown, she’s in such a better place now. I truly believe there’s at least one song for everyone on this album, regardless of what your music taste is. Personally I love every single song, no skips for me.WOW !!!

Vulnerable, People You Know, Dance Again, Let Me Get Me are stop favorites for sure. The whole album is very versatile, so impressed. Love it! Would 100/10 recommend to everyone, give it a listen you’ll be surprised!… Expand

    selena is amazing. rare is so freaking good and the best songs on it is "rare", "lose you to love me" and "vulnerable".

    o melhor álbum que a Selena poderia ter lançado, uma obra de prima feita pelos deuses e a Selena, os 4 anos valeram a pena porque isso está muito bom

    Álbum of the year. Ha superado totalmente las expectativas, me parece una obra de arte hecha música. Me encanta la manera en que ha evolucionado, tanto en la musica, como lo vocal. Impresionante.

    very bad, it's a very disappointing basic album, and I have the impression I've heard some of these songs (if that's what you call them) before

    This really does show her growth and development throughout her career and life. A very mature piece of work. Deserves all the attention and praise it is receiving!

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Achei monótono, chato, entediante e as músicas são muito parecidas e repetitivas. Não houve nenhuma evolução vocal da Selena, mas as letras pelo menos salvam. Look at her now, lytlm e rare únicos singles possíveis.… Expand

    it's right to say that 'rare' is the most personal album that i already heard. it's a soft and delicate album, exactly how selena is. all the beats and rhythms are made for the songs, the lyrics are catchy and beautiful at the same time. her voice is a velvet covering my ears with a pretty melodic tone. singing like an angel, i believe it's that what we heard when we arrived heaven.

    A great album! Selena Gomez is back with a true and intimate album that exposes her experiences in recent years since the release of her latest album, Revival. The construction of the album is cohesive and the vocals are like cuddling to the ears.

    Incredible album, she was gone for 4+ years with no album and came back swinging. Selena showing how it’s done, how to make a real comeback with meaningful music. She’s got dustbin’s fans up in a knot the obsession they have with her... yuck. 10/10

    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.
