Katy Perry - Prism

The first single is excellent and gave me hope for this album. That's where it ends for me as it seems to be that Katy who was once the savior or perceived savior of pop music has now become just another CCM act and yes I know that's where she started I just find her now to be another "con" artist and that annoys the crap out of me. Her terrible second single "Unconditionally" is typical drivel that could be any number of artists on the charts.

The entire problem with this collection of songs is that it is vanilla and faceless. She's lost her spirit of rebellion and grandeur for pathetic disco melodies like "Birthday" which would be a good song if it was 1977 along with the absolute horrid "Walking On Air" another piece of shit. I'm sure the tasteless generation of pre-cooked food, Meet The Kardassians and the awful Maple Moose potato chips will love pure unadulterated crap like "This Is How We Do".

Katy Perry needs to go directly to jail do not pass go and do not collect $100.00 because this album is criminal and I really wanted to use the "F" word in front of criminal. The stifled production and the smoothing out of her voice really becomes noticeable on this album and by the time I got track ten I almost tossed this piece of doo doo in the garbage. The only song that I didn't immediately want to skip was "The Moment" but even that song is murdered by the over production and vanilla instrumentation. The song could be as good as "Fireworks" but the song is one flat line that never gets to spread its wings and fly as it so wants to do. It might sound epic in the live arena but on this album it sounds ruined and lacks everything that it needs to be a true hit.

The christian section on the deluxe version is vomit worthy and I couldn't get through any of the songs completely as I didn't want to lose my lunch. Now the album closes with "Choose Your Battles" that has some of the most cheese ball lyrics that I'm sure people will take as powerful and wonderful but they are nothing but whiny and sound as if Celine Dion should be singing them. Yes they are that bad! Prism is an epic fail and even though many will love this crap doesn't change the fact this album is awful and it will show just how bad this generations taste in music has truly become as it sells millions of copies to generation bland.
