    Ništa posebno, pored 3/4 i 12 pjesme na albumu ništa posebno. Uobičajeno, nista posebno, revolucionarno. Čak i dosadno

    This album is such a huge step up from Revival. Proud of her for trying new sounds and being creative with it. To be honest, half of the songs all sounded the same to me at first but the more I listened to it the better it got. Amazing work Selena, this album perfectly captures your style, voice and aesthetic.

    The album is very good. Talk about loving yourself no matter what happens, but it does not appeal to me, that is, the rhythm, voice does not call me to download the music. Also congratulations Selena.

    Gomez doesn’t show much variety in these songs. They come off very repetitive and she samples a lot of older songs, which isn’t a bad thing when credited. Rare is a direct rip off of Charlie cxc, Gomez is credited for the writing but no changes were made to the lyrics? Also, the title track Rare’s beat is a rip off of Indila’s Dernière Danes. Cut You Off ripped off the style of CamillaGomez doesn’t show much variety in these songs. They come off very repetitive and she samples a lot of older songs, which isn’t a bad thing when credited.

    Selena can’t sing. She has good music, but that doesn’t make her a singer. There are better music out there. Stop supporting thins woman who preach be a feminist and talks **** about other women.

    I feel like this album will be the greatest pop album of the entire year. Every song is great & magnificent and carries an emotional backstory. Haters are pressed because their favorite artists can only make generic pop music written by dozens of old white men so that it appeals to the general public and become a forgettable “hit” with moderate success.

    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.
