    Katy Perry nos da un álbum regular, con una expectativa muy grande desde el lanzamiento de su hit Never Really Over, sin embargo...el álbum no es consistente con su propuesta y aunque mejoró sus lyrics no lo hace un excelente álbum.

    Un gran álbum, bastante variado y nostálgico, es muy Katy, está muy bien, todas las canciones son arte.

    Not that good I have to say. Will Katy release a good album some day? Let's wait.

    Pop perfection. She did that. No skips and made me smile. She doesn’t deserve all the hate she’s getting from stupid critics from the big rats, and highlighting NME (a fad)

    Inspirador, autêntico é impecável. Katy Perry transformou sua dor em arte e nos trouxe mais um trabalho de qualidade.

    Isso que acontece quando você não sabe se reinventar. Um lixo sonoro, só 3 músicas se salvam, conceito bagunçado, letras horríveis, parabéns Katy Perry, vc é um fracasso artístico

    Didn't really like the concept. Seemed unappealing. No reinvention and not upto the mark.

    O novo testamento está entre nós. Os vocais estão melhores do que nunca, numa vibe pop genuína. Uma obra de arte.

    algunas canciones son buenas, el problema para mí creo que es el ritmo, porque la letra los da y expresa lo que probablemente Katy quería
    aún así, apoyamos a Katy, yo siendo Swiftie

    Katy Perry knew how to create a great album with an impressive production and wonderful songs. The videos of this era are very good and impressive. Perry really managed to make a perfect album.

    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).
