Brecht 7 Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 Spoiler He gave it a strong 3 to a light 4/10 and said it's her worst album. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eddie 2,518 Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 Sadly I agree in everything he said. The songs sound like fillers from ALL her previous albums in a meh way I think even people are starting to be over Katy because of the sales of this era and after that I think she really needs a REAL BREAK this time to enjoy her new mother time and get away from the public eye What if tomorrow I see you again? Should I say that I used to love you? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TerrenceV2 2,001 Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 I was very surprised when on release day people said they preferred Smile over Witness. I actually loved Witness from the first time I heard it (minus Hey Hey Hey and Swish Swish). I really appreciated how different it sounded and thought it was a bold move on her part! Smile sounds... meh. NRO is amazing though! playground love - josef salvat Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MonsterofFame 1,785 Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 Everyone is criticizing Smile for not showing growth.. yet when Katy tried making a mature album on Witness, everyone cried that they wanted carefree Teenage Dream Katy back.

That's the problem. She tries to please everybody and at the end it doesn't even pay her good She should stop doing that and create music she truly believes in...not "music for her REAL FANS" What if tomorrow I see you again?

HoneyB 27,926 Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 I get the criticisms about her not changing it up for smile but all these negative reviews seem so undeserving and harsh. I think it’s a pretty great pop album with lots of bops it’s not that deep When it comes to Katy she will never satisfy people’s needs because they either want the TD Katy back, or they want experimental Katy back and clearly, no one is supporting her regardless of what route she takes I’d give it a 6.5-7/10, I thought it was a really enjoyable pop album and I’m glad Katy has found her groove and accepted the trajectory of her career and embracing it. 💋 𝕊𝕥𝕖𝕡 𝕐𝕒 ℂ𝕠𝕠𝕜𝕚𝕖𝕤 𝕌𝕡💋🍪 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s literally what the 2nd half of Prism was. That’s what all of Witness was. That’s what every failed single leading up to Smile was. Her problem is that her signature sound was crafted by Dr. Luke, and she simply can’t replicate it without him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

PrinceOfTheStorm 5,904 Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 Witness was tryhard chart features and generic sounds that differed a bit from TD and Prism but there was no big change that was really positive and thats why people didn’t like Witness signing out Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
