Demi Lovato Lays It All Bare on 'Confident

It's not exactly subtle, but the former Disney star's album goes some way to shaking off a cheesy past.

The fifth full-length studio release for the pop singer features guest appearances from Iggy Azalea and Sirah.
-
Entertainment Weekly
Taken on their own, Gomez’s and Lovato’s albums aren’t breaking any radical new pop ground. In fact, both could have benefited by taking inspiration from the other.
-
all music
This 2015 album is Lovato's best all-around record since her 2008 debut, Don't Forget.
-
The Guardian
too few surprises
-
SLANT
Lovato mistakes the ability to cram as many syllables as possible into each word with virtuosity. And the album likewise mistakes overwrought for confident.
-
sputnik music
Not unlike her third studio effort Unbroken, this album finds Demi recovering from the ashes of her past but rather than be too reflective like on the aforementioned project, she’s turning the focus onto the lessons she’s learned...
-
Beyond the Stage
Now with her release of her fifth album Confident, Lovato isn’t afraid to show that she’s grown up, but also she isn’t afraid to keep speaking her mind and show some “sexiness”.

DEMI LOVATO’S ‘CONFIDENT’ IS A CONFUSED AUDIO-FILIBUSTER
-
The Young Folks
Confident is the highly anticipated fifth LP released by this vocal powerhouse, and if the album doesn’t bring in the numbers expected, the albums high voltage tracks will surely put it on the map as Lovato’s strongest album to date.
-
Melodic Magazine
After listening to this album a few times, I think that the Lovatics will find themselves very satisfied.

A surprisingly compelling listen.

Rolling Stone

-
The Guardian
Swagger and fragility on a compelling pop record.
-
Slant Magazine
The album is dominated by a mix of hip-hop-infused midtempo jams and equally misguided rock-tinged power ballads.
-
Sputnik Music
Excellent.
-
Melodic Mag
Demi Lovato is here to show the world that she is still a force to be reckoned with!
-
Critic of Music
"Confident" occasionally finds itself covering old territory, and when it does, it's almost insufferable; but when it explores and distances itself from Lovato's past work is when it truly shines, and is worth the listen.
-
Music Times
Confident has its moments, but does not deliver on all fronts as it was intended. Let's see how she goes for round six in two years.
-
Redbrick Music
Demi Lovato has returned to music and she is as confident as ever.

The Young Folks
Overall, the album creates a girl-power world full of heartache, kicking ass, and being you.

Cryptic Rock
Lovato can now officially put behind her days of self-doubt and struggle, having now proved to the world that she is a stronger, more confident and mature women, who is happy with herself and where she is headed.
-
Treble Zine
While Confident is by no means the powerful artistic statement of say, Carly Rae Jepsen’s Emotion (few pop albums are this year, if any), it generally echoes CRJ’s disinterest with chasing the zeitgeist of current genre sounds.
-
Entertainment Focus
Confident proves to be an apt name for Demi’s latest album. We’ve never heard her sound so liberated and passionate.
-
Spectrum Culture
Yeah, Confident has issues, but when a chart-topping pop record is dripping with sincerity, it has to be called a success.
-
Standard
'Low on intrigue'.
-
A Bit of Pop Music
The album simply could have done with less acrobatic vocals and more memorable songs.

Previous stars on children’s television can often find it hard to escape the withering vacuum of the television business, but the feat is not impossible. Just ask Lovato, a successful artist in today’s world of pop.
