Review

Shawn Mendes' sophomore album, "Illuminate," dropped on September 23, 2016, via Island Records, and it's a game-changer in his musical evolution. Mixing pop, rock, and blues, this album takes a more grown-up, reflective path compared to his debut. The hit single "Treat You Better" paved the way with its top 10 Billboard Hot 100 success, giving us a taste of the romantic and emotive vibes running through the album. Tracks like "Mercy" and "Ruin" showcase Mendes' knack for blending intimate, soulful vocals with guitar-heavy melodies that'll make your heart pound.

With glowing reviews from critics who applauded his lyrical depth and polished sound, "Illuminate" soared to number one on the US Billboard 200 and the Canadian Albums Chart, firmly establishing Mendes' star power. His Illuminate World Tour, kicking off in April 2017 and wrapping up in December, earned rave reviews for its electrifying performances and Mendes' growing prowess as a live performer. "Illuminate" not only highlights Mendes' musical maturation but also cements his ability to forge a deep connection with his listeners. - Tatiana
