    This is the most boring album ever, Katy perry has to try new things. The idea of circus doesn’t make sense with the songs.

    Некоторые песни классные, но они не подходят друг другу. Все это было очень беспорядочно и бессмысленно, кажется, что песни играли только на альбоме, и это сработало, и все еще есть минус.

    Basic album. " Katy Perry’s bubbly, cliché-ridden pop feels especially unsuited for life in a pandemic. But despite all her garbled platitudes, she remains a master at executing chart-flopping formulas."

    Realmente todo el disco parecen descartes de sus trabajos anteriores. No se siente una conexión o sonido que nos diga quién es Smile. Las baladas son monótonas y aburridas.

    In spite of, or maybe because of, her promotional spectacles—Left Shark, the whipped cream bra, teasing her baby’s name with a single release—she’s long been able to comfortably assume legions of people will listen to her music, without even asking themselves why. The unspoken question of Smile is: Why now?

    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).
