kc's takesies : deciding how i felt about this album was very much a rollercoaster. i had never heard a Jessie Ware tune before, but right from the start i was SHOOK by the beat change and was LIVING. it never fully got me feeling the same way after that, it lost me sometimes throughout, but overall there were no BAD SONGS, in my opinion. i could see myself relistening to this, like i may be a Jessie Ware fan now? which i NEVER expected going in, i was actually dreading listening to this... but turns out... i can't judge a book by her album cover !
zu's review: going into this i had no idea what to expect as i had not even heard of the bitch before, but woah... this album was GOOD. she has a sound that i dont have the musical genre knowledge to put into words, but if i had to describe it it would be rina sawayama meets jackbox party lobby music. and that is by no means bad. i felt the same way i did discovering lana del rey in 2013; her style is older, and yet fresh. i was and am still intrigued. superb!
