This girl ALWAYS delivers and the quality of the production, lyricism, and songwriting is off the charts. I love what she's doing, and what I find even more admirable is that at no point did I feel the album was calculated or desperate for chart success in any way--her love of music and Pop is echoed throughout and it shows.… Expand

    This album could've spawned multiple hits if properly promoted. Dedicated is a decent album. Carly explores new sounds throughout, which was a small issue for me.

You create another masterpiece — more mature, more refined, more adventurous. Dedicated can’t help but fall in EMOTION’s shadow, but it truly is its own record, with its own atmosphere, attitude, and message. It’s more intimate than EMOTION ever was, and plays with more sounds: Carly bounces from sophisticated, 1970’s piano-heavy lounge-pop (“Everything He Needs”) to No Doubt/Gwen Stefani New Wave (“I’ll Be Your Girl”) to the nostalgic, 80s-tinged gems she does so well (“No Drug Like Me,” “Want You in My Room”). Like any good Carly album, Dedicated is addictive, cohesive, and thoughtful, nearly every song its own slice of pop perfection. It’s truly an achievement to create pop that is this catchy, yet this sophisticated.… Expand

    Repite la misma fórmula de E•MO•TION, pero con una identidad diferente, no suena TAN repetitivo si le das la oportunidad, pero si es un poco insípido en ciertas canciones, a pesar de esto, es un álbum que habla de amor...propio, de pareja de una forma más madura a sus otros proyectos, es pop puro.

    When you’re smitten, four years is a long time to wait. Yet that’s been the plight of the army of pop lovers, sad indie lads and previously-jaded music critics caught in the wake of Carly Rae Jepsen’s fantastic synth-pop opus Emotion. The good news is that CRJ’s fourth full-length album was, for the most part, well worth the wait.

Yet that’s been the plight of the army of pop lovers, sad indie lads and previously-jaded music critics caught in the wake of Carly Rae Jepsen’s fantastic synth-pop opus Emotion. The good news is that CRJ’s fourth full-length album was, for the most part, well worth the wait.

    Dedicated is a mixture of flirtation, longing, jealousy and heartbreak but mostly synthesizers. It reflects the singer’s musical growth between albums. Her conventional pop productions take on more mature subject matter and she experiments with incorporating diverse sounds. The release does disappoint in some aspects with uninventive lyrics and an unfortunate lack of standout vocal performances but despite this, the high energy, undeniably catchy and well-crafted beats and melodies on the album will make you forget about any of its’ faults and leave you singing along instead.

    While Jepsen is not pushing the boundaries of pop with Dedicated, she does create a celebration of the sounds and sentiments that make the genre so enjoyable. The beauty of a Carly Rae Jepsen song is that it does not take itself too seriously. Dedicated further solidifies her music as an unwavering voice of honesty, unashamedly pop and a go-to for your summer soundtrack.

    This was a particularly mixed album. There were catchy songs like Too much that get stuck in your head for days. Then there were songs that felt like cookie cutter Jepsen. Now that I found you seems to try and replicate the bubblegum poppy goodness of Cut to the feeling. The album seemed to suffer from convoluted production at times. This is by no means emotion, but isn't her worst album by far.

    Carly Rae Jepsen's album "Dedicated" really brings "music you can clean your house to" to a brand new level. Jepsen does an amazing job with her smooth pop melodies on Julien and yet can mix it up to something more upbeat like on Want You In My Room. Every single song is an absolute treat that will have you begging for more.

    Dedicated is naturally the best pop album of 2019. I dare to say it's even better than E•MO•TION! She evolved so much, sounds more mature and cohesive. Production is 10/10, synthpop perfection. Happy Not Knowing is a bopppp

    Brilliant growth since E•MO•TION. Production is top notch. Highlights are Want You In My Room, Everything He Needs, The Sound, Automatically In Love and Real Love. It’s criminal that she isn’t a bigger commercial success.

    Carly se mantendo na qualidade de seus álbuns, assim como no anterior E.M.O.T.I.O.N.
    Excelente!

    Needs a lot more work, it sounds like a cheaper version of her last album, many of the tracks are skippable, the only track I would ever go back to is “Party For One”, but unfortunately they put it on the deluxe track which was disappointing

    Um cristalzinho genuíno e musical. Não é o seu melhor álbum mas dando 10 após a campanha de Flood negativo dos fãs da Miley Cyrus.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The sound sounds very cheap, it reminds me of a slightly more “polished” version of Nelly’s “The Ride”, it gets repetitive, the drag-y sounds in some of the songs gets repetitive.… Expand

    Another collection of perfect pop from the legend that is Carly Rae Jepsen. She managed to keep her signature vibe, whilst still evolving further.
    This further solidifies her place as one of the most underrated artists in the entire industry.

    Pop that gives you goosebumps. Pop that makes your heart soar. Pop that leaves a lump in your throat. Pop that activates your tear ducts and leaves a smile a mile wide on your face. Carly Rae Jepsen's "Dedicated" is the antidote to 2019. This is how modern pop music should be. Catchy, infectious, joyful, melancholy and fun. Pop never went away. It just got better. 10/10

    The first half of the album is actually quite entertaining and good. I think that "Too Much" and Tracks 10-12 are probably the only tracks that I don't like. The second half overall is just underwhelming to me. A lot of tracks on the album are underproduced, which is never a good sign.

    Carly como sempre entregando nada menos que a perfeição! Ainda não entendo como essa mulher é tão subestimada. Cada canção desse álbum traz um toque de originalidade onde Carly não deixa sua essencial de lado. Um álbum coeso que toca diretamente o coração de viadinhos apaixonados e sofridos. É isso galera. TACA STREAM NESSA LENDA!!!!

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Dedicated is another tree where Carly Rae Jepsen blossoms, from the funky start of Julien to the slow vibes of 'No Drug Like Me' this album has so many flavors! 'Now That I Found You' bring backs the catchy pop she is known for and 'Want You In My Room' shows her sexy and mature side. 'Everything He Needs' brings a classic catchy sound to the table followed by the pop boost of 'Happy Not Knowing'. The most surprising song to me was: 'I'll Be Your Girl' which gives me rock-pop vibes. Followed by my fave single 'Too Much' which should be the song of the summer. The Sound brings a cute production and her voice has a little rasp in it too. 'Automatically in Love' is my favorite song of the album, which gives me major throwback vibes to the 90's and great songwriting. Carly's collab with Electric Guest does not disappoint and gives me summer vibes. Followed by 'Right Words Wrong Time' which gives me the same vibes as 'No Drug Like Me' slow but her vocals shine. Up next: 'Real Love' which brings back the sax as well as in 'Want You In My Room', a great closer to a standard version, really cute. 'For Sure' is heartbreaking but also is an anthem and totally fits a festival, with the handclaps and everything.
    Followed by Party For One which gives this album full circle, from an ode to 'Julien' and other love songs/heartbreak moments bring her back to herself.
    Love the production,songwriting and her voice, she keeps progressing every time.
    Album of the summer.... year... 2 years. till the next one, keep it going!    … Expand

    A real piece of art, the sound she went with on this album is different than what she did with emotion. That doesn't mean it's not good, it's for the best honestly. The sounds are fresh and unique and she made pop what it's supposed to be.

    There could be an argument that a couple of edits to make the track listing shorter would have resulted in an even more effective album. However, this is easily one of the best pop albums of the year as it is: one that’s unlikely to be bettered unless a certain Ms Swift really pulls it out of the bag.

    Dedicated isn’t a perfect album--it’s overlong and occasionally concedes too much to chart tastes to be interesting. But by the time Jepsen takes a bow following bonus track “Party For One,” you’re reminded once again of her generosity, of all the space she’s cleared for strength and weakness, for personal epiphanies and communal release.

    Dedicated is good, but it doesn’t whirl with the same destructive force; in that sense, it is Carly Rae’s first genuine failure in a decade.
