A nice EP that would have gained a lot from being 10 minutes shorter. While she sings well, I wish there were more dynamics throughout the record in terms of register, processing, or energy level. It makes tracks which in a vacuum would be quite neat feel a bit redundant, 'more of the same' and thus far less impactful than they could be. This is especially true after the nice interlude on 6, where the nice and elegant 7 and 8 feel like they overextend the record despite being quite nice. I have to say the backing vocals and the male guest on 7 and 8 respectively help a bit, and she definitely had the right idea to add variety with 10 finally adding loads of variation. It comes a bit late, but certainly makes for one of the greatest tracks here with the most depth. Unfortunately the EP is also ill constructed, as both 9 (soft emotional track, really not the place to have that as energy curve was already headed down, nice buildup of energy and bass though so it's fine) and 10 could have been nice album conclusions, lessening the impact of 10 and making the outro 11 feel unnecessary. Drops this below 3.5 tier. Before that, 1's a pretty album intro, 2's fine but fairly generic although it gets way better by 1min30 gets chill with some of the pianos, 3 is very elegant with the piano, 4 is one of the best with great guitar tone in the intro followed by nice vocals and drums, while 5 is also top tier with its more upbeat vibe and nice rapped additions - sadly as I said above it is followed by an excessively long dip in energy. 3.2
