Genuinely such a good album and am open to changing this to a 5 star after a few more listens. The first half of the album is my favourite there’s so many immediate and memorable tracks that I love. The second half was a little less memorable but so many cool vibes and ideas. The lyrics always hit and the beats are so punchy and crisp. Her voice is just so majestic and I love all the layers recorded on the track that are coming in and out overlapping with each other. It creates such a warm melodic atmosphere and has so much depth that is worth coming back and listening to as I’m discovering new parts of the songs each listen. Will definitely come back to this and maybe even buy the Cd for it.
