Descrevendo-o como uma espécie de “luz no fim do túnel” que a ajudaria a recuperar a alegria de viver – e também serviria de guia para seus fãs -, Perry aproveitou sua gravidez para trabalhar avidamente em um retorno ao pop, que já demonstrava frutos gloriosos com “Never Really Over” e “Harleys in Hawaii”, singles avulsos que, eventualmente, integrariam o compilado de inéditas. Utilizando elementos novos para compor essa mais nova fase de sua carreira e “acidentalmente” adiando a produção para um dia depois do nascimento de sua primogênita, Daisy Dove Bloom, a artista se manteve fiel às raízes que a colocaram no topo do mundo na década passada – ainda que tenha abandonado certos vícios de linguagem Expand

    Great album. Katy Perry keeps talking to the audience at her best. Some songs stand out for bringing together elements that cause a perfect storm, but the track list connects in such a pleasant way that after the last beat of What Makes A Woman a smile of relief in times of pandemic is the only possible reaction.

    10 years after Teenage Dream, she’s still here making better music than ever before. People want her to stick to bubble gum pop but over years she has sonically matured and this album is the proof of that. Give it a listen and you’ll fall in love with this album. Personal favourites : Cry about it later, Only love

    Read first the critics review and shocked about how unprofessional their works are. It’s not even a critic but a personal attack.

Ms. Katy Perry continuously shows growth and maturity in her music. Started from how she kissed a girl to an honest and sincere anthem of positivity and light like the track called Only Love. It’s pretty obvious and disgusting how the so called “critics” has always been negative towards Katy Perry’s new releases. The real metacritic score is pretty obvious based on the ratio of 7 crickets I mean “critics” and 1000+ user scores. Have a nice day and it’s Not The End of The World. Expand

We see a Katy, who has remained vulnerable in several previous situations (as in her documentary: Part of Me), showing that that joy shown previously as Sweets and Fireworks was only superficial and that did not portray her reality. The ballads on the album are incredible, and what Katy does best, since we see incredible vocals on Daisies.
    Tucked is about an "delusional relationship" and at the same time it's a joy song, that's so much awesome to 'see' on a song.
    Those are just two examples that represent the album very well, which is very worth listening to.

    Smile is such a powerful album, everyone should hear it. I recommend listen to “Cry About It Later”, “Not the End of the World” and “Never Really Over”. It is definitely one of the best albums of the year and Katy’s career!!

    this album is incredibly splendid! The tracks are perfect and have a story in them, and their production is impeccable. Katy Perry nailed it!

    Please stop making fanwar. Folklore, Chromatica and Smile deserve to have 10/10 ❤️

    She has been able to reinvent herself after Witness which was not on top with an interesting work. First 3 tracks are absolute bangers, very dancy, very pop. Only love, with her gospel influence is an absolute masterpiece, maybe one of her best songs in the entire career.

    Without fleeting moments of bad taste, Perry does indeed sound mature, but she's also not quite as fun. That's a conscious choice, though. Smile is intended to evoke memories of her frivolous younger days while pointing toward a sustainable pop future.

    While Perry finds the occasional moment of quality here (Smile and Tucked both feel like the best possible music we could get from Katy Perry in 2020), Smile is an album searching for an identity—and when it fails, it falls back on lazy writing.

    Like Joanne before Chromatica, Smile plays like a necessary centering exercise, indulging her insecurities and less surefire instincts. If Witness was overdetermined, Smile is an earnest exhale, for better or for worse. It delivers an image of her journey towards inner peace that is honest (if corny) and catchy (if not exactly inventive).
