    Katy Perry shows all her vulnerability on this incredible album. tracks that talk about politics and women's empowerment only enrich the album. without a doubt one of the best albums of Katy Perry.

    An album so underrated, this pop is electric, different and the sounds of all the albums have the same vibes. Every song has a deep message, and finally, the lyrics are amazing. This album transports you to another dimension. Very great job Katy! Congratulations. For me, the album of the 2017.

    Uma viagem. Não é o melhor álbum de Katy Perry, tão longe é o pior, tem propostas maduras (que ela cumpre), tem músicas prontas para serem hits! E outras que ficam confusas e soam inesquecíveis (mas que não deixam de serem faixas boas), sem falar da ótima produção. Vale a pena conferir e testemunhar.

    A raw personal album from pop super star Katy Perry. At the beginning of this album cycle, Perry described this album as “purposeful pop” as it has liberations across multiple topics in her life. “Chained To The Rhythm” is a great political anthem and opened up the era setting the tone for Witness.

The production value on this album is outstanding and one of the biggest standouts on the album. This is Perry’s most personal album as the tracks include very personal and intimate lyrics. “Into Me You See” is really the song that brings this entire album and era together. Perry talks about living a big facade and putting up a high wall shielding herself from everyone that no one could breakthrough to get to know her authentic self and for the first time ever in her life, she is being her most personal self with the public more than ever before. Perry has reached a breaking point and wants to be honest and open with everyone and her album reflects that. While many other music critics criticize the albums lyrics, production value, and overall track list; furthermore, They simply don’t understand the material and are undermining what Perry is stating with the record. This is a high concept album that only certain amounts of people that take the time to hear the lyrics and what Katy Perry is truly saying will recognize how outstanding this album is.… Expand

    "What if I lost it all today, would you stay?" - Katy Perry

In 2017, Katy creates a record revealing the vulnerability and fear in her heart.    "What if I lost it all today, would you stay?" - Katy Perry

    Daring, determination and courage! Witness, appears to be a project 100% structured by the singer.

    We know that her creativity goes far beyond Instagram posts: she develops tours, directs music videos, decides song names, and composes songs. In 2017, Katy creates a record revealing the vulnerability and fear in her heart. Songs like "Into me You see", "Save as Draft" and the title track itself, propose to those who decide to listen with an open heart, the state of loneliness in which the artist was. Behind electropops, like "Swish Swish", Perry hides the need for acceptance by other people, mainly because he is a woman, in a market dominated by men, taking all the prominence.

    Unlike PRISM, Witness is an album in which the mistake is not in choosing the repertoire, but in choosing the themes of the songs. The lead "Chained to the Rhythm" addresses the political issue, "Bon Appetit" talks about Machismo, "Swish Swish" talks about humiliating another woman (?!).

    Initially with the political theme, the album gets lost in wanting to address a lot at the same time. Perhaps, if divided into 2 or 3 ep's, Perry could continue to convey his message as he aspired to do with this album, and have a greater acceptance by the public, as listeners would be aware that these would be thematic, and all songs would follow the theme line. . Witness is a good album, worthy of note 8, until then the best of the artist.

    Unfortunately, it's an album that I like, because I'm a fan, and I've heard it dozens of times, but for the critic who hears 1 or at most 2, what he finds is an album lost in itself.

    May the next album be more structured and cohesive, as Katy (and no artist) does not deserve the criticism received for this project.

    A super wronged album that shows that Katy Perry is a vesatile artist and that she also leaves her comfort zone. His songs bring a new message, with criticism and reflections. An album that guides you out of the bubble. However, the "criticism" is chained to speak only of the artist's life and not of what the album really is.

    Son sonidos únicos, algo fresco y potente por parte de Katy.

    Witness es un álbum diferente, y muy especial

    Es un excelente álbum, con sonidos frescos para Katy, pero no lo suficiente para su espera de 4 años.

    This is her BEST album for sure!!! The darkness of the songs and the era is just OUT OF THIS WORLD.

    Witness é um álbum a frente de seu tempo! O mundo está reconhecendo isso apensas agora 3 anos depois de seu lançamento! Possui uma ótima sonoridade e saiu da zona de conforto de Katy, que faz tudo impecável!

    While it's certainly missing any form of coherency, Witness does feel like you're growing with Perry - going on this journey that's helped her find new ground and a reinvigorated appreciation for all walks of the pop music spectrum.

    While she may have slipped down the pecking order, Witness proves she’s still a more interesting pop star than she’s often given credit for.

    It’s a real shame Witness has come out as a bit of a disjointed mess, as there’s a decent record somewhere in there, but it gets lost in the fog of endless guest productions and co-writes that miss the point entirely.
