This is her best album to date, the production is experimental yet focused and the writing is incredibly brilliant. She managed to create a new sound nonexistent in her past records and she manages to sound edgy, confident, and daring. I was really mad when I saw that Consequence of Sound article, and the fact that that they gave her a 33, which does not add up at all, as the album is beyond that score and the article was very biased and attacked her own personality and not the music. I also feel like she is singing from a different space in this album, she is more honest and raw and is able to channel this vulnerability extremely well in each song. I hope she makes don't blame me a single as it is incredibly catchy and has brilliant lyrics. Overall, an incredibly clever electro-pop album that shows her off in a different light… Expand

    This is the best album of 2017...I love all the songs and Taylor with this album has established herself as biggest pop artist of this era...She is the only one who writes her personal feelings so well in the songs..I love the album but not more than Queen TayTay herself!

    Pop music's resident prostitute is at it again. Here are the two types of songs Taylor is capable of:

    1-Wah wah some celebs bullied me :(
    2-"My bby treats me so nice ;)"

    If you want an actual capable songwriter, go listen to Lorde's album.

    Reputation it’s one of the best albums of 2017, it’s a shame some people can’t separate Taylor’s personal life and her work, it has powerful lyrics and it doesn’t sound like anything she has done before . 10/10

Como Taylor fala em seu prólogo de Reputation, conhecemos apenas a versão que a pessoa decide mostrar. E com Reputation não será diferente, iremos conhecer uma nova Taylor, com novos pensamentos e disposta a nos mostrar que realmente ela é. Com músicas fortes e marcantes Taylor sai novamente de sua zona de conforto para nos entregar o melhor de seu trabalho, não esperava menos. Reputation é o melhor de sua carreira, mas não duvide da capacidade de Taylor para nos surpreender no futuro. O que podemos fazer é apreciar esta obra prima que salvou o pop de 2017.

    The best she has done so far. We should judge the album based on the sound, music, lyrics, not the drama around it. She is still a lyrical genius. Some songs on here are hard and make you want to stand up and jam to them. The rest are so sweet, genuine. And last but not east, the story telling is spot on

    This album features a new side of Taylor never heard before. Her new music style actually works out and she pulls it off in an astounding 15 track album. Each song is a bop with lyric game being very strong. She weaves incredible songs mixed with a fantastic production. Would really recommend to buy.

    It's loud, fun, and relatable. Not perfect, not 1989, but still good. No matter what she does people are going to find something to complain about, but this album really shouldn't be it. It is a good, strong pop record. Nothing more, nothing less.

    Reputation is a masterpiece.

    Reputation. It is a snake hidden in a field of flowers, ready to strike. every bit of it is so catchy and well planned out. the beats rattle my heart strings instead of plucking them gently.

    And we end on the softest, sweetest Taylor who was disguised by her own reputation.

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.

    Horrible, all is exactly the same to her last albums, same lyrics, same sounds, same topics & with a lot of auto tune, i see she made this album in a desperate attempt to sell.

    It lacks of a complete magic, on their songs. Most of them got a same rythm and comparing to 1989´s diverse kinds of rythms, these one has failed to impressionate many of us.
    Btw I GIVE HER SOME CREDI CUZ THERE ARE STILL SOME BANGERZ TO ENJOY

    Great album. Just like 1989, the worst songs on the album are the singles/promo singles (Shake It Off, Ready for It, Bad Blood, Gorgeous are abominations), but the rest of the material is pretty solid. Loud and obnoxious just like her, but amazing at the same time.

    still wondering how TS became this overtly hyped pop star - bc let's be real, the woman doesn't have the vocals or stage presence to justify any of it. this collection of songs sounds uninspired and isn't going to be remembered in the long run. save your money, folks.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. La producción de este álbum es muy buena. Algo que yo admiro de Taylor Swift es que a cada uno de su trabajos siempre nos sorprende, nunca se queda estática o en su zona de confort. Las canciones como como ...ready for it, Look What You Made Me Do, End the Game y mis favoritas I Did Something Bad y Don't Blame Me son las canciones mas enérgicas de todo el álbum, Gorgeous me recuerda mucho a Blank Space por una base electropop muy tranquila, está canción This Is Why We Can't Have Nice Things y Dancing with Our Hands Tied a mi parecer son las canciones mas divertidas de reputatión me hace recordar canciones como New Romantics y 22. New Year's Day es la canción mas tranquila de este álbum me recuerda trabajos anteriores de tay tay como all too well & ours. Desde mi punto de vista muy recomendable nunca Taylor Swift decepciona… Expand

    Taylor Swift makes many meaningful songs that everyone relates on. This whole album is different from the rest of her past ones because of its uniqueness and the story being told.

She will never change but she will never stay the same either. They should accept the fact that she's matured enough to try new things in life. She used to be sweet and she will remain sweet but not in the same way. Her success is something every hater is insecure with. Happiness is the only things fans could give her.… Expand

    This is the best pop album of the year - period. The lyrics are on point from ...Ready for It, all the way through to New Years Day. She doesn't care about the fame, she doesn't care her reputation, she cares about her music - the thing that gave her it all. She is here to stay folks, deal with it.

    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.
