    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

    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 cohesive album that shows all the evolution since Revival, shows all his maturity with the track '' lose you to love me '', which was a sure pick for Rare's single debut. Rare is relentless and impeccable from the first tunes to Selena's last note.
