Hurts 2B human

"Hurts 2B Human treads familiar ground. With the brass-assisted, stomping opening track Hustle, and the EDM juggernaut Can We Pretend, the listener is provided with the underdog me-against-the-world anthems that Pink does so well. But the album's most affecting points are its most tender. Lead single Walk Me Home and the pared-back 90 Days both carry flourishes of digitised vocal production, a fresh touch in a catalogue of pop-rock. Plus, any ballad that allows Pink to showcase her vocals is a stand-out moment: on the title track, with Khalid, she's strikingly raspy and heartfelt, and on the album's melancholic closing track The Last Song of Your Life, she soars beautifully into her upper range".

"[Med] ældre indslag som 'Get the Party Started', 'Don't Let Me Get Me' og 'Just Like a Pill' ... kan [man] mene, at Pinks metervarepop ikke ligefrem strutter af personlighed, men der er i det mindste noget effektivitet over føromtalte hits, hvilket det nye album lider af en fatal mangel på ... Hvor er melodierne? Idéerne? Personligheden? Ikke engang stortalentet Beck, der fungerer som medsangskriver på ferske 'We Could Have It All', kan puste liv i dette makværk. 'Hurts 2B Human' virker - groft sagt - som en karriereforlænger".
