3.5 greatBedex | August 8th 20

This is still well executed but relatively generic neo soul. It lacks hooks and jammy tracks to really be memorable, but it's all quite nice. I was struggling that she'd struggle with a longer runtime, but she cleverly made the LP hold the distance by changing things up adding guest vocals and not singing herself in a lot of places on these tracks (6,9,13,14) which are all quality and set up their follow ups for success. The latter two especially convinced me that this just deserved a 3.5 tier as I was hesitant to 3.2 or 3.3 this. 1,2,12 have chill late arvo vibes which work well with her sound. 3's kinda fun too, but 4-5 show her usual issues, although 5 has a fun instrumental and improves over time with cool ideas and guitars at the end. 7 has its impact refreshed by 6 as I said and is a fun track with a relatively memorable hook which is good to see. 8's more of the same with some nice piano. 10 is a gentler track but that works very well for once with its elegant, jazzy piano and sax with cleverly sparse singing. Unfortunately 11 is also a ballad and not nearly as good. 3.25
