Indubitably better than EP1, both vocally with Alpha being far more incisive and innovative, far now from his quite debutante performance on EP1, and instrumentally as the record mostly strays away from the efficient-but-a-bit-generic-asf style of the first EP to try new things. This isn't immediately obvious as 1, while nice, remains quite flat and chill cute, albeit with an absolutely excellent outro that i was surprised to see on a track like that. 2 transitions in a cool way and packs more of a punch as the EP reveals its substance a wee bit more. 3 exemplifies what I mean by the instrumental side having made progress as well. 4 works but is just, yknow, 'the mandatory Nek track' unto which Nekfeu imprinted his style a little too much to my taste, whilst 5 is elegant and quite frankly one of the best tracks here. 6 is nice and incisive but has a bit of cringe in it, whilst 7 goes back to the safer style of EP1 but much better (and after the first 6 tracks, a safer track is more than fine yknow). 8 bugs me and drops this a point, as its second half is great and would have joined well with 7, but its first half really sticks out like a sore thumb and, while ok, feels just weaker and breaks the flow unnecessarily. 3.4

A bit nastier than on his first EP. He still relies on chill & jazzy beats, which is always nice, but it does not allow him to truly shine (apart on Barcelone, masterful track showcasing what he will do in later endeavours).
