Renowned for Sound[17]

The album received generally positive reviews from music critics. Writing for Rolling Stone, Joe Levy noted 'Illuminate mixes professions of romantic agony like 'Mercy' (where a quietly hummed hook explodes into crashing drums), with nice-boy valentines like 'Treat You Better' and bedroom come-ons like 'Lights On.'[15] For Jon Reyes of Idolator, '[Shawn's] most noticeable change, aside from the tight music hall sonics, is the subtle infusion of sex into the lyrics. He's graduated from songs like 'Kid In Love' to fare like 'Lights On' and 'Patience.' Both ballads paint clear pictures of behind-closed-doors moments, and the sexual nature of the lyrics doesn't qualify as innuendo by any means.'[16]Associated Press listed it at number 5 on their best albums of 2016.[18]Billboard listed the track 'Don't Be a Fool' at number 90 for the best deep cuts from 21st century pop stars.[19]

Commercial performance[edit]

Illuminate debuted at number one on the US Billboard 200 with 145,000 equivalent album units, of which 121,000 copies were pure album sales. It became Mendes' second number-one album in the US and his best sales week. Mendes achieved his second No. 1 at 18 years, two months and seven days old, becoming the fifth artist to score their first two No. 1 albums at such a young age, following Justin Bieber, Miley Cyrus, Hilary Duff and LeAnn Rimes. In addition, Mendes is the first artist to have their first two full-length studio albums hit No. 1 since 5 Seconds of Summer bowed at No. 1 with Sounds Good Feels Good (2015) and their self-titled debut album (2014), and the first male artist to claim the distinction since 2015, when ASAP Rocky bowed atop the list with At. Long. Last. ASAP, following 2013’s Long. Live. ASAP.[23]

In his native Canada, the album debuted at number one with 21,000 total consumption units, of which 17,000 were album units sold, surpassing the highest one week sales total reached with his last album, Handwritten. Illuminate also picked up 3.8 million audio on-demand streams, the second highest total of the week, trailing only Drake's Views.[24]

Review

Shawn Mendes Illuminate Album Download Deluxe

Shawn Mendes translated his Vine superstardom into genuine pop stardom in 2015 thanks to 'Stitches,' a lively piece of pop with a slightly soulful undercurrent. Wisely, Mendes and his team decide to play off these soulful inclinations on Illuminate, the album released almost 18 months after his 2015 debut Handwritten. This isn't to say that Mendes is a crooner, nor is he riding anything resembling a funky groove. Instead, Illuminate uses light R&B rhythms as a way to give a bit of grace and warmth, the airiness of 'Ruin' and 'Three Empty Words' spinning heartbreak into seduction. As it turns out, this wide-eyed puppy dog routine is the key to Mendes' appeal. He's not forceful, and whenever he slides into a loverman routine, there's never a sense that he's a player: his voice is so small and sweet, it feels as if he's whispering sweet nothings to his high school sweetheart. On Handwritten, such quivering sensitivity seemed tentative, but on Illuminate, it has gelled into his pop persona; he's charming because he embraces his ordinariness. Sometimes on Illuminate the songs are a bit too diffuse to benefit from these qualities -- whenever they lack a hook or pronounced melody, the tracks tend to drift -- but a lot of the record provides a good showcase for his tenderness. And these aren't necessarily ballads, either. Certainly, he feels at home on a nice slow-burning torch number like 'Don't Be a Fool' -- an old-fashioned slice of swaying '60s soul -- but on the insistent pop of 'Treat You Better' and sunny seaside vibes of 'Honest,' this boyishness is equally appealing, and those sly shifts in tone are why Mendes comes into his own on Illuminate. [A Deluxe Edition added three bonus tracks.] ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
