  1. 9.0 |   Exclaim

    Planet Her has no skips, not even the previously released singles. It showcases many sides to Doja but remains cohesive — if you don't consume it in its entirety, you'll definitely miss out on truly understanding her world

  5. 7.8 |   Pitchfork

    The third album from the extremely chaotic pop star, battle rapper, and edgelord is a thrilling ride that puts her eclecticism on full display

  6. 7.8 |   Beats Per Minute

    It’s the type of pop album there should be more of: both playful and psychedelic, rich in intelligent production, and filled with charismatic and chameleonic performances

  7. 7.0 |   The Line Of Best Fit

    Overall, Planet Her is less of a sci-fi concept album and more an exploration of new genres for the star, offering up beautiful music videos and album artwork

    Whether the record’s legacy will hold past the next trend cycle is not quite written in the stars

  10. 7.0 |   Clash

    Multiple layers mold the artist that is Doja, and as she is carving out a lane that is entirely her own, she is not afraid to be herself no matter how chaotic it may be at times

  12. 6.0 |   Slant Magazine

    The songs comprise a nebulous mass not unlike the swirling galaxy of the album’s cover art

    Read Review

  14. 6.0 |   Gigwise

    A passable collection of pop songs that fails to expand upon the universe of Doja Cat

  16. 5.0 |   Loud And Quiet

    The album shines when Doja Cat follows her impulses rather than trends
