    that is her best album, critics are criticizing people instead of talking about the album, this is a shame, she worked hard for it I can feel her heart listening to these songs and this is the most important thing. love you katy.

    Katy as always making quality songs, this album would be no different. I venture to say that it is one of the best albums of the career if it is not the best. Songs that are perfectly matched to the moment I'm living.

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

    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).
