Katy Perry is a famous American singer. She was born in Santa Barbara, California on October 25, 1984. She is known for hits like "I Kissed a Girl," "Firework," "Roar," and "Dark Horse." Over the years, she has won numerous awards and nominations. She is also a judge on the show "American Idol." In addition to music, Perry is involved in charitable activities and campaigns for human rights and LGBT+ people.

Katy Perry releases a new album

September 20 was a significant day for Katy Perry. Her seventh studio album "143" was released on that day. Unfortunately, the album did not receive a positive reception from netizens and even some of her fans. Speculations arose right after the release of the first single that the album would be a major flop. These assumptions were somewhat confirmed, as the new Katy Perry album was considered one of the weakest works of her entire career.

Is the singer's album a flop?

The failure of Katy Perry's new album is evidenced not only by the negative opinions of netizens and her fans but also by the general reviews given by music critics. The album is the lowest-rated production of this year. Additionally, on the day of its release, the songs from "143" did not make it onto any hit playlists on Spotify, both in the USA and globally.

Many netizens have complained about "a desperate attempt to combine all of the currently trending genres into one song." They also point out that the lyrics are boring, and the recent scandals involving the artist definitely do not help promote the album. One commenter noted, "Katy is stuck in the last decade, this album is redundant and bland." Of course, there is also positive feedback regarding the album on social media, but the amount of criticism significantly outweighs the praise.
