    Is just a message of Selena saying, "yes, i have been in the low, for real, but i'm ready to go outside and search for my own happiness, because i deserve it". Rare is the real Selena Gomez, authentic, vulnerable, honest and in the top of that, obviously, rare.

    It’s an absolutely phenomenal album by Miss Gomez, where she doesn’t shy away from vulnerability. Experimental sounds that perfectly complement her beautiful vocals and collaborations that are impressively complementary to her. Perfection.

    “Rare’s stylish assortment of songs is refreshing – a commanding, understated flex that suggests Gomez’s lengthy toil in the studio paid off. Maybe there’s a correlation: Selena Gomez albums don’t come along all that often, and neither do pop albums this fully realized and self-assured.”

    Selena Gomez released an honest and a heartfelt record that feels honest and raw. Tracks like Dance Again and Vulnerable are bangers, feeling like they would be perfect for radioplay. On the other hand, there are songs like Ring, Crowded Room or Fun, which really did not stand out to me and felt like filler tracks within this album.

    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.
  2. Jan 14, 2020

    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.
