P!nk Dive Deep into ‘Hurts 2B Human.’

Pink has made her career off creating soundtracks vocalizing a generation’s different growing pains. In her 2001 breakthrough, ‘Don’t Let Me Get Me,’ she was a tattooed, pink-haired misfit opposing Britney Spears in a high school changing room. Since then, all of the releases, up until her heart-wrenching ‘Beautiful Trauma’ in 2017, have been anthemic songs talking about rough subjects such as drugs, depression, and divorce.

The album’s opening

Hurts 2B Human follows a similar pattern, with the stomping, brass-assisted track ‘Hustle,’ and a juggernaut of an EDM song ‘Can We Pretend,’ the listener once again delves into the world of a pariah where everything seems to go against them—something that Pink usually pulls off extremely well. However, the album’s most tender tracks are the most affecting ones.

A sense of melancholy

The lead single ‘Walk Me Home’ and ’90 Days’ provide a fresher feeling to the pop-rock category through their tidbits of digitized vocal production. Any ballads which allow Pink to show off her powerful vocals are welcome—the title track featuring Khalid showcases her strikingly heartfelt and raspy vocals in a moment that makes it stand out from the rest. The closing track ‘The Last Song of Your Life’ drives in melancholy as listeners indulge in her beautiful upper range.

The passionately sung ‘Circle Game’ and ‘The Last Song’ show the singer confronting themes of loss and love, reflecting on the meaning of growing up and turning into the parental figure she saw as her role model in her youth. The songs don’t show much growth even while dwelling on the theme in a paradoxical turn of events.

Final thoughts

The album is a decent entry in Pink’s canon, but it couldn’t escape the shadow cast by Homecoming’s release by peer and beloved queen Beyonce, reminding pop fans of the effort it takes to stay innovating for more than two decades.

While there is a certain beauty within consistency, we must all embrace evolution. Pink today seems like the same person who used to yell at mirrors and fight against archetypes back in 2001.
