@orbitalaspect I understand and I agree, some songs feels like they are almost there, but it's lacking something, like LOL, Mercedes and a couple more.

One thing that wasn't a smart idea was those 5 seconds previews because they all share some similarities, but when we actually listen to the songs we can feel they are different. Like Bassline, Damn real, Insane... I was expecting the album to have pretty much just a trap/h&p/electropop sound, but as we get to listen more the songs, it's different and interesting imo.

At the end of the day the final decision goes on what you are into at this moment and your personal taste, and that's what everyone is welcome to share their likes and dislikes.

I agree that some songs are more well produced than others, one easy example of that is Color The Cover, where the first 3 songs definitely stand out on the production department, and then there are songs like "Otoko", which is great for the song itself, but the production is quite poor and don't even sound like real instruments.

I personally like the direction she's going, there are some missteps here and there, like CRANK THA BASS, LIFE so GOOD!! and some others, but for me the overall experience has been quite exciting and good.
