Best: Star-Crossed

Worst: HTE 

[Breakdown]

I absolutely loved star-crossed and still use it, it's the album that got me into her.

Cherry Blossom is the definition of pop perfection.

Simple Times is a fantastic melancholic bop.

Justified is just stunning.

Camera Roll, Good Wife etc. she snapped, she did what she had to do etc etc Thanks, Kacey

star-crossed > Happier Than Ever > 30

[josesuxx]

Best is HTE by far, worst is star-crossed but it's not bad by any means 

[PoisonedIvy]

I know star crossed gets a lot of hate but I enjoy like 85% of it so so much. Camera roll, easier said, there is a light, if we were a movie, etc are all so great. I was going through a really rough breakup when it came out though so it does get some emotional bias from me lol.

 

I enjoy HTE WAY more than I enjoyed WWAFA. While I’m not the biggest fan of 30 outside of like 3 songs.

 

I’d say HTE > star crossed > 30 

 

for what it’s worth though, 30 isn’t worse than 25   It’s just the worst “follow up” of these 3 imo

HTE and 30 are both better than their predecessors 

Haven't listened to Star-Crossed. But Kacey's AOTY will always be Same Trailer 

[sunbathinganimal]

star-crossed was such a step down 

[sasashite]

Speak Now and Evermore

[PMKARDASHIAN]

All terrible (sans kacey but I never listened to any of her albums so I don’t have anything to form an opinion on) 

[vale9001]

30 is better than 25, Happier Than Ever is better than Billie first album. I don't know I really liked both, maybe HTE a little bit more. 

[tellem]

I didn’t read and voted Billie for both but star-crossed was the worst 

[KatyPrismSpirit]

30 is the best. Star crossed and happier than ever are equally mid

[Lemon]

I haven’t been super connected to these albums even though I consider them all solid projects, but I think Happier Than Ever got me the most. 

[B-Luke]

Both SC and HTE are great albums and better than their predecessors. 30 is worse than 25 but it‘s still good.

If I were to rank them: HTE > SC > 30

[rebeltwat]

Overall HTE > SC > 30. All good albums. I still enjoy SC quite a bit but it was probably the biggest letdown out of the 3 following their predecessors. Still better than 30. 

[kandicha]

HTE > 30 > SC

 

I still listen to Happier Than Ever but I never listened to 30 or Star-Crossed again after the first week they were out. I thought 30 was okay but boring, but I really didn’t like Star-Crossed especially knowing she’s capable of better.

[BloodLuster]

HTE SWEETIE. and ofc the worst is 30MB.

[Kiss It Better]

best: 25

worst: Kacey
