    April 25, 2019. Pink’s Party Is Still Going Strong, It’s Just Taken A Maudlin Turn. . . . the lack of spark on Hurts 2B Human stings a bit. I want to root for her, but at the moment I don’t care to listen to her.

    April 25, 2019. Hurts’ stylistic breadth, linked from song to song by Pink’s world-weary yet optimistic outlook, makes it an enjoyable — and, at times, relatable — pop album from one of the Y2K pop boom’s veterans.

    May 7, 2019. While it is a mixed bag – with tracks that sometimes beg to be replayed, and sometimes to be skipped – it is still a sign of P!nk’s immense talent for music.

  • Entertainment Voice

    April 25, 2019. Taken as a whole, the foremost problem with “Hard 2B Human” is that it’s not the most cohesive record. Yet, bar one or two mishaps, it would all flow smoothly, even with all its stylistic leaps. Although the lyrics are often trite, they are also occasionally thought provoking, humorous, or otherwise enjoyable. And most important of all, it displays the peerless singing talent that is Pink in all her glory.

    May 18, 2019. "This is Pink being Pink, which is actually quite amazing. All the songs are bangers. It's notable for the use of classically organic instrumentation like guitars and pianos, and yet it still sounds modern.

    May 2, 2019. Very hard to judge on Pink’s latest album for me. There are some really nice songs, but overall, Hard 2B Human does not catch me too much. . . .this album might not be Pink’s masterpiece, but it could be a turning point to whatever album number 9 will be like.
