    This is an extraordinary and remarkable piece of work. The musical and lyrical storyline that you follow are both spectacular and immaculately executed. A masterpiece - Taylor's best work yet.

    The best album she has ever released. Starting of with a strong and powerful track and ending with a soft and beautiful ballad, this album is a masterpiece that you will not get tired of listening to. Every melody, every lyric, and every beat isn't like a song, but a feeling that you will feel every day.

    It;s so different from all of her past albums! She keeps getting better and better. Her sound evolved and all of her songs on the album is single material! I'm looking forward to the reputation tour!!

    Taylor warned us in her 1989's big hit "Blank Space": she might love the players, but nowhere near as much as she loves the game. Reputation is Swift's most cohesive project to-date and puts the American singer back at the throne - right where she belongs.

    It's not a great pop album, but it isn't bad at all. You know, there are some songs you'll probably listen again, and again, and again, but there are also songs the you'll skip at the first 10 seconds. Not great, not bad, just an average pop album.

    iconic, calculating, perfectionist and intelligent, this proves that Taylor Swift is the biggest pop star today, we are waiting for you Miss Swift, come to Brazil, we are very happy and supporting your work, kisses with lots of love.

    I can't believe how this amazing artist never fails to impress me. All the songs are amazing, it's impossible to believe that there are people who actually think she is not talented.

    This is a masterpiece. Everytime Taylor pushes me to a sound that I would never think I would listening to and than... I start loving it. I can't pick up a best song because all of them are great. This is so cohesive.

    Reputation is Taylor Swift's most personal body of work yet and yes sonically this album seems very off the earth but the lyrics are thousands of feet into the earth. Instead
    of her being sad or not happy it's about her being mad or very happy which sonically sounds so much better. This is Swift's BEST body of work yet sonically and lyrically.
    It's sexy but still doesn't rely on sex to

    It's sexy but still doesn't rely on sex to give the album an edge. Some standout songs are End Game the Ed, Future rap track which is a lot better than you would think
    it's very retro. I Did Something Bad, Don't Blame Me, Getaway Car are also great songs. This Is Why We Can't Have Nice things, Call it What You Want and New Years Day are
    BY far the most lyrically indulging songs. Delicate, Look What You Made Me Do and Gorgeus stink compared to the rest of the record but they are still decent enough.
    1989 was sonically perfect but only half decent lyrically, while Red was amazing lyrically but lacked sonically. Reputation is the perfect balance of those 2. While I
    cannot put this into perfect words it's 100% her best album to date.

    Um álbum que veio mostrar mais uma vez o amadurecimento da Taylor Swift na indústria musical com letras impecáveis, que deixaram as pessoas que duvidaram de sua capacidade de composição sem argumentos, conseguiu se renovar mais uma vez sem perder a essência de uma boa música e sucesso em todos os aspectos

    This album is so good I want to cry, Taylor Swift really outdone herself. All of her albums are amazing, but I never really thought she could do something better than 1989 simply because I never thought someone could. Taylor proved me wrong. Congrats, Taytay

    The first 4 tracks we heard worried me a lot, mostly because it felt like the lyrics on them weren't nearly on par with her past works. I have to say that I don't think 1989 was as lyrically good as her other albums (especially Red, the album that came before it, which is genius most of the time). But after 1989 I, personally was expecting her to come back to her genius self, lyricallyThe first 4 tracks we heard worried me a lot, mostly because it felt like the lyrics on them weren't nearly on par with her past works. I have to say that I don't think 1989 was as lyrically good as her other albums (especially Red, the album that came before it, which is genius most of the time). But after 1989 I, personally was expecting her to come back to her genius self, lyrically wise, especially since she surely had a lot of inspiration from the past few years.

    After listening to reputation in full, I am pleasantly surprised! She delievered, I must be honest. I don't say this is better than her past albums, I'm not judging it like that. I just love that I like the album a lot, which was something I was afraid I wouldn't. There is clear overproduction going on here, which I think is what she (and her producers) were going for. Most of the songs are really chaotic, in the sense that there are lots of things going on, and what I like about that is that there are many production choices that add a lot to the choruses, which sometimes aren't strong enough melodically to sustain themselves alone. So it's like she compensates the lack of one thing with something else. They made each song in a way that you don't really have much filler material (although I feel like track 7 and 10 might be fillers), so there is always that "aaah this is so cool" moment, that surprises you.

    So, production wise it's great, lyrically wise it's great, and her vocals sound reeeeeally good in all the songs. BUT I personally find her voice very pleasant to the ears so maybe other people might think differently.

    Bottom line, what I like about this album is that it keeps alive the idea that Taylor still has her main talent, which is songwriting. I thought that idea was dead after some of the promo singles. AND the closing track reminds me of how much I love her more introspective stuff. And although I like reputation and the sound it went for, I'm really here for her to go back to country or at least a more alternative/introspective sound, kinda like she did with Red.

    I don't think it's a 10/10 but I gave it a 10 because I want the user score to go up.

    This album is a masterpiece. Ms. Swift really knows how to change up her sound and deliver something totally different, but very welcomed. She has always has been a great songwriter and this album proves it even more. Excellent album.

    When everyone thought Taylor Swift's 1989 is her best pop album, here she comes with reputation, her most sonically cohesive and lyrical masterpiece of an album, yet. If there's one thing I realized following Miss Swift, it is that she never disappoints. She always exceed all our expectations! Congratulations to this brand new successful era!

    Sometimes overly busy album. ... Swift soars when she is most herself. [Jan 2018, p.112]

    Part rumination on engaging with the pop icon and part deep end even after eating the meal, Reputation keeps the ball in the air, argues for moving forward, even if it’s herky jerky.

    Swift’s unencumbered analysis of the tectonic shifts within her personal and public life are equal parts razor sharp and self-indulgent. But as a pop album, Reputation is never revolutionary, the adrenalin rush heady but ultimately short-lived.
