    No seu sexto álbum, Justin apresenta um álbum pop com elementos de eletrônica e juntando tudo aqui está em alta no mercado. A escolha de singles foi muito bem desenvolvida, todas as faixas escolhidas tinham potencial de venda e cumpriu bem o papel. Purpose é um ótimo álbum para se ouvir em alguma festa, mas não precisa ser exatamente uma festa boa.

    ambitious and with a clear turn to a more adult musical road, "Purpose" is certainly Justin Bieber's best album today but it lacks the catchiness that a pop album should have and many of the songs are extremely forgettable.

    One of the best albums I've ever heard in my life. He gave everything away, and the live performances only prove it. In fact, it was one of Justin Bieber's best tours. Concept, cohesion and acclaim. The diversity in the rhythms, the deep lyrics...
    Anyway, a complete artist and certainly my favorite album of his! This is Justin Bieber, folks!

    seis anos após "purpose" podemos ver o impacto que essa era teve tanto na carreira de bieber quanto na música pop, no mundo da moda e em todos nós. ele nos mostrou um bieber mais adulto, com atitude, assumindo seus erros da época e outro lado mais frágil do artista. um albúm memorável quando você fala sobre a música pop da década de 2010.

    Definitely top three of his best albums. I feel like if you're trying to get someone to listen to him, this should be without a doubt, the first album for them to listen. This album along the the iconic merch it had is unmistakably a before and after for pop music, not only career. The comeback that he made is something needs to be talked about and respected more.

    Purpose is indeed Justin's best work so far. An excellent album, beautiful sounds, unforgettable hits as Sorry, What do you mean?, Love Yourself and the Grammy winner, Where are Ü now?
    From beginning to end Purpose gives a different perspective of Justin style and shows off his great matureness and development.

    Em todo o álbum o próprio Justin com sua equipe decidiram fazer o movimento chamado 'Purpose', o que fez que esse álbum recebesse uma identidade nova, diferente de tudo que ele tinha lançado.

    Finalizando o álbum teve ótimo singles, e aí esta a fórmula para o sucesso, algo que vejo em poucos artistas ultimamente, e é claro que vemos que Justin tem o elemento 'X' que todo bom artista tem.    … Expand

    È senza dubbio il miglior album di Justin Bieber in cui, come già fatto nella raccolta Journals, dimostra una maturazione della sua musica dai precedenti album.
    Nel 2015 è stato uno degli album più venduti e ha avuto un successo clamoroso riuscendo a far piacere la sua musica anche ad un altro tipo di pubblico,quindi secondo me album riuscitissimo.

    It’s when Bieber’s honesty feels less-than-honest and the tracks feel less-than-groundbreaking that this album falls short of the heights it should by all means be capable of reaching.

    You can’t hear The Feeling in his voice, which is still one of the most infectiously beautiful in the industry, because as his faith has saved him from his pain, his production team has saved his voice from Justin.
