    Harmonic, sensitive and fun. The best gomez does in career years, mature and superior to current generic pop

    O álbum é tão intenso, e mostra através de melodias e letras tudo que a Selena passou em seu antigo relacionamento extremamente tóxico

    Como sabemos selena no maneja niveles altos en su voz pero, llego a utilizar muy bien su voz baja con sonidos diferentes, logró un equilibrio. En conclusión, encontró lo mejor para ella.

    I’m not a fan of her but this album is SO good! I think this is Selena’s best album so far and her vocals improved as well. La times? Comparing her with Ariana grande? So unprofessional, don’t be biased guys just cause you are Ariana fans clearly. Selena’s album is better by miles! Congratulations Selena!

    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.
