Description:

Selena Gomez has been a lot of things in her short career — a Disney star, a steady source of tabloid fodder, an aspiring actress — but what sometimes gets overlooked is that, since 2009, she’s been making really good records that put her right at the top of her generation of pop singers. For You collects some of the biggest singles and best songs from her four albums, her “duet” with Selena (“Bidi Bidi Bom Bom”), and a couple new songs as well. At her best, Gomez has a light and nimble vocal style that fits into a wide variety of styles and always delivers just the right level of emotion without ever overselling. She feels natural delivering sweet pop anthems like “Who Says,” hitting the sad disco on “Round & Round,” or rocking out a little on “Falling Down.” Mostly, though, she sticks to danceable, slightly melancholic dance pop, and this collection makes clear just how good she is at it.
