    This album remains the best and honest album from Selena Gomez so far. Her vocals. Her voice and her style match every song perfectly. Every song is a like story and you follow and she makes it fun. She come so far since revivial and this was is at the top for me one every playlist.

    This album shows her growth really good. She got really personal and emotional with this album. Her raw vocals and emotions together are a combination not every album can pull off. Standing Ovation for Gomez. i hope The Recording Academy recognizes this pop album and gives her the nominations Lose You To Love me and Rare deserves to get.

The infectious dance beats from songs such as ‘Dance Again’ complement well with the slower and more relaxed sounding songs such as ‘Crowded Room’. Selena hadn’t released a full album of music since her 2015 ‘Revival’ but within the, just over, 4 years she released droplet singles which all feature on a deluxe edition of the album with all of them feeling at home on the record. It seems near impossible for Selena to top this album in her discography but Selena is all about growth and I’m pretty sure this will be seen once again in the future.… Expand

    Honestly, the most underrated gem this year. So many songs have such a lovely uniqueness to them and it isn't too poppy or mainstream which completely fits. Stand out tracks are Ring, Cut you Off, Crowded Room, Dance again and Kinda Crazy. (The Deluxe version is EVEN better with 2 of my favourite songs, She and Souvenir).

    I think this is one of the best albums if not the BEST album of Selena. She pours herself in these songs and lets her be vulnerable to her fans and the world. I think every song has its own spark and own everything and I enjoyed every single bit!

    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.
