    This is an extension of Katy Perry, she wrote every single song of this album with a real feeling. It is very authentic.

    Love how cohesive the project is, a great listen with no filler tracks. Cry about it later is a standout track that deserved to be a single!

    And I really liked this album. And I'm a fan of the gaga and even though I'm angry with Katy's fans going on chromatica and lowering their grade, I'm not going to give a bad grade to the smile. We must grow up and stop this pointless fight. GROW!!!

    In my opinion her best album. Many people keep saying it is flat, basic, forgettable and not innovative. In my opinion it's definitely the opposite! Wonderful, from start to finish. I highly recommend everyone to listen to it!

    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).
