    El fin de Katy Perry. Sonidos más de lo mismo, no se atreve a hacer cosas nuevas, a reinventarse. Pensé que me iba a producir una sonrisa por el título del álbum pero no, fue todo lo contrario. Espero algo mejor para la próxima.

    More of the same! Smile portrays a stagnation in Katy Perry's career since 12 years after her first album the singer still does not seem to have met as an artist, releasing cliché material with production and lyrics that seem to have been discarded from previous materials. Terrible!

    you just don't feel any connection with the album is like the sound and lyrics are not too special and it's pretty forgettable, nothing to compare to Perry's prior albums that at least had two or three potential smash hits.

Coloquei no spotify porque uma amiga me pediu pra dar stream e disse que a katy tava precisando, mas infelizmemte quando dei play minha familia ficou tão traumatizada e intoxicada com a radiação que tivemos que sair de casa por 5h pra contaminação sair da nossa sala de estar.

    Smile is the worst album released by the artist, it sounds completely dated and forgotten in the middle of her vast discography. What Katy Perry needs is to find herself artistically, and she fails in this project. One of the worst albums of 2020.

    Coesão? Isso nem existe nesse álbum, são diversas músicas vazias, jogadas pra cumprir tabela, esse álbum soa mais como uma playlist ruim do spotify do que um álbum.

    There are good songs such as Harleys in Hawaii, Tucked and Smile (Song), but after what she did in Witness, I was waiting for something really new such as what she did in Harleys in Hawaii. That is the reason for my score: Please, Katy. Come with something new and fresh. Bring back that pop star that enchaincheted us

    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).
