    After the sixth song the album is lost, unfortunately this is what happens when you create a lot of expectation in an album, treat it as something sacred but nothing special. But tracks 1,2,3,4 and 6 saved the album

    **** gorgeous. Sem dúvidas o melhor álbum pop do ano. Taylor Swift nunca arrasou tanto como compositora. Álbum coeso e muito bem pensado. Vale nota 11

    Um dos melhores álbuns que eu já ouvi da PALMITA! esta fantástico, pop de qualidade, ta afrontosa, ousada, nem um pouco recatada, gosto assim, abusada. Coitada das HATER POCS, devem estar chorando com esse lacre todo. Não haverá explicação, somente reputação!

    Obviamente um dos melhores álbuns de 2017, senão o melhor... O álbum é genial, autêntico e brilhante.
    Taylor misturou toda a essência do 1989 em conjunto com uma proposta nova e irrecusável aos ouvintes.
    Cada faixa guarda emoções diferentes e isto é incrível.
    Taylor literalmente salvou o pop de 2017

    this is the best album of the year, Taylor in this album make a good hob and is amezing. And that's saying something, because Lorde's sophomore album was very good as well. Taylor took everything people are saying about her and turned it into lyrical gold-as she always does. Buy it. Buy one for your grandma, grandpa, dog, cat, fish, sugar bowl.

    This album has catchy songs...but it doesn't feel like a Taylor album anymore. It sounds like any popstar could've came out with this. I still think RED was her best and most personable album.

    O álbum é ótimo se levar em conta que é um álbum POP sem intenção de ser uma obra-prima. Minhas preferidas são Getaway Car, I Did Something Bad, Don't Blame Me e King of my Heart.

    Reputation is Swift's most musically cohesive composition in her catalogue, featuring her trademark narrative storytelling but with thematic representations of love largely unexplored in her previous work. The album builds on the production value of 1989, lyrical complexities of Red, and narrative aspects of Speak Now, easily making it the best record Swift has released.

    Each song has a distinct sound that differentiates it from the other 14 tracks, yet all 15 work together seamlessly and create a singular story with heavy impact: melodically, lyrically, and thematically. Arguably the best pop album of 2017.

    REPUTATION is a masterpiece of 2017 pop music, this album made me feel so happy and complete! I'm so happy because of this album and I loved it so much!

    Reputation is definitely one of the best albums of 2017. Taylor Swift once again showed how talented she is by making an album completely different from what she had already done before and the final result was great.

    An introspective record from Taylor that not only comments on the current states of both her love life and her reputation/career, but reconciles the two topics beautifully. The first half of the album may have all the bangers but the second half will destroy you emotionally. The old Taylor may be dead, but her passion, effort, and otherworldly songwriting are alive and well. Enjoy.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. For me this is one of the best Taylor's albums because she reflects all the things she feel at the moment when the rumors and the lies came to light and her friends disappear and just the trusted friends stayed with her. She use the songs to represent the problems in her perspective and how the things where wrong making her look like the bad one in the story. And she repeat that she still believing that everyone it's good with each other and that it's not the reality. Expand

    Reputation is the album none of us expected, but all of us needed. The three year wait was worth it. Favorites are Dress, So It Goes, Getaway Car and King of My Heart.

    Her genuine best album so far. It is filled with unique tracks that everyone can enjoy. This brings a fresh sound to the table.
    One of my favourite songs would have to be End Game ft. Ed Sheeran & Future

    this is the best album by Taylor so far !!!!!!!! I LOVE IT SO MUCH. every song is a bop and the lyrics are perfect. the only song that i can't find a way to like is "End Game". the best songs must be "Getaway Car", "I Did Something Bad", "Delicate"...

    This album is really the best album of this year, 2017. On the one hand, we have this talented and brilliant singer that is Taylor who sings with a different type of music, really different from what she did before and I think that is really brave from her. On the other hand, the quality of the music is incredible, every song in this album is a masterpiece. Truly. A lot of hidden signs areThis album is really the best album of this year, 2017.

Go check it out, and you'll see that she is a genius.

    Cet album est très largement le meilleur de cette année 2017. D'une part, nous avons la talentueuse et brillante chanteuse qu'est Taylor qui chante avec un style complètement différent, vraiment différent de ce qu'elle faisait comme type de musique et je trouve ça vraiment courageux de sa part d'avoir tenté ceci. Et d'une autre part, la qualité de la musique est au rendez-vous, vraiment incroyable, chaque chanson dans cet album est un véritable chef d'oeuvre. Réellement. Beaucoup de signes cachés sont dans l'album et je paris que vous ne les avez pas vu. Allez regarder ça et vous verrez à quel point Taylor est une génie absolue.

    I’m a Lady Gaga Stan who also listens to all the other pop girls Lana Beyonce Rihanna ETC but I’m shook I’ve ignored Taylor’s first 5 albums and this is the first time fully listening to one and actually caring about an album she’s released so with saying all that I can’t believe this is her lowest rated album by critics but I can believe this is her highest rated user album.

This album does not have one bad song PERIOD every song is unique but similar in the way that they all fit in this album together. The best part of this album is that it gets better as you listen. What is the point of having music critics if me as a new Taylor listener totally unbiased see this is Taylor’s lowest rated album but I loved every song and consider this my favorite album of 2017? And in only three days it has become the best selling album of 2017 to say the least I’m disappointed in meta critic for misleading users to believe that this is Taylor’s worst album when in reality IT IS her best. I listened to 1989 and while it was great I didn’t love every song. This album I LOVE every single song. This album is the best selling album of 2017 and it DESERVES that title a three year break does the mind good hope every Taylor Stan loves this album because if you don’t youre missing out on realizing how good this album is

    Just one simple thing to say: this album wrote by Taylor Swift is art. Taylor Swift has improved a lot on her vocals and I'm very proud of my blond girl.

    This is easliy Swift’s best album to date. It’s very coherent. There is not a single bad song on it. I thought the song with the features on it was going to ruin it, but it fit really well. The whole album had a recurring theme, and I liked that a lot. This album is a musical and lyrical masterpiece. It shocked me. It’s truly amazing.

    smart and classy as always miss swift. so not what i expected and was left shocked after listening to it. she deserves every success and much more to come! the only complaint if i were to have one, is to tone the noise a bit on some songs, but overall good

    One of the best projects of 2017, definitely. Taylor’s lyrical genius is as good as before, if not better. Her voice has improved, with her hitting high notes in most of the songs. Her maturity shines through on this album. This album doesn’t just deal with heavy aspects of her reputation but also who she really is a person, making it one of her most personal and cathartic albums to date.One of the best projects of 2017, definitely.

Every song is a masterpiece and stands on its own. Even songs considered to be “duds” like LWYMMD, shine in the album order, hence lroving what’s already known im the music industry that Taylor Swift is one of the few artists left who knows how to make a cohesive album and not just hits that will be forgotten.

    Taylor outdid herself in this album. She went above and beyond. This album is the best of 2017 along with Lorde's Melodrama.
    Strongest tracks: Getaway Car, Delicate, Don't Blame Me, Dress, This Is Why We Can't Have Nice Things
    Weaker Tracks: End Game, Gorgeous

    ”reputation” is one of the best pop albums of 2017. Everything about this album is a masterpiece. The songwriting is amazing, her vocals are better than ever, the songs are catchy and the production is amazing. She showed the other girls how it should be done with tracks such as “Don’t Blame Me”, “Delicate” and “Look What You Made Me”.

    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.
