    I expected more from Ms. Gomez considering that this was supposed to be her comeback album after a 5 year hiatus. Gomez’s 3rd LP is arguably one of her worst works.

    Dont relly understand the hype of the Selena stans here. I am a little bit disappointed. Every Song sounds a little similiar too me and it contains only a few Songs that you want to hear again. Lose you to love me is the strongest Song on the Album.

There is also a difference between a cohesive album and an album that where every song sounds similar with the vocal range and production. This sounds like an album that tried to be cohesive but it fell flat because each song does not have any diversity compared to the rest. Also, learning that a lot of these songs are rejects from other artists makes the album less genuine and authentic because it didn't come from Selena herself.

    For a personal album, she talks a lot about Justin in this one specially the lead single. Selena can pretend to be unbothered, but she is bothered by the fact that Justin married, and she can’t use him anymore in the future for clout.

    Also all the songs in this album are rejected ones.

    All the lyrics are like a 13-years-old girl who think that what she's writing is poetry but then you have "toast in the toaster". "You'll never understand me cuz I'm so rare (so unique and different... wow)" and "I won't answer the call I'll let it ring".... I can say that lose you to love is is the only good one in this album... and in lytlm there so parts that don't even rhyme

    Rare continually teases intriguing forays into leftfield pop, but so many of the album’s experiments come off as just that, without ever crystallizing with memorable hooks.

    The record she has delivered to kickstart a new decade is a career defining release, and from a pop star who is firmly back on top of her game.

    While none of these 13 songs attempt the subtle weirdness of “Bad Liar” and the emotional thesis—self-love!—can be a bit one-note, Rare is the 27-year-old’s most cohesive record to date. ... But it’s difficult to come away from Rare with any real perspective on who Gomez is other than that she doesn’t want to be the person she was, whoever that similarly mysterious shadow was.
