A little burnt from his feature on Dua Lipa's deluxe album being a complete waste (I don't think it was as bad as some people made it out to be but it certainly wasn't great lol) but it's good to see J.I.D getting another high profile feature! Patiently waiting for him to make a proper commercial breakthrough x

 

What is she doing not having Ariana featuring on the song titled 'Get Into It (Yuh)' though :lol:

would make more sense to have Kiss Me More earlier in the tracklist instead of last song

Really excited for this have a feeling it could an album if the yet contender for me

I do think she missed a trick by not releasing the Ari or Weeknd Collabs as singles before hand though, she might have had a shot at a #1 debut in America but I can’t see them getting that high just as album tracks

The Weekend song is heavily rumoured to be the next upcoming single and released and pushed along side the album.

LOVE the female empowerment message that runs right the way through this! Love that she name drops Tinashe too :cry: "And I say "Oh, stop it", ay. I look a little like Nashe, ay"! Very solid album on the whole. Woulda liked more tempo changes throughout though. But overall, I'm liking this. I think it's gonna grow more too. I really like the collabs! Which makes a change coz I find the collaborations are more often than not "underwhelming" or "disappointing"... but I was really into them on this listen. The Ari collab was surprising coz throughout I kept forgetting she was even on it.. and then she comes in with her immediately recogniseable voice :lol:

 

There's only one song I didn't really like on first listen. I just found it incredibly annoying! :(

 

The thing I find most refreshing about this current crop of female rappers, specifically Doja, is that, in every interview that has asked for her/their opinions on "rivals" in the industry, they completely state the opposite and have non-stop praise for their peers. LOVE IT.

First impression:

 

Wow, really enjoyed this! I was trying my best not to automatically stan the Ariana track and I will say it's not the highlight but It's hitting me harder on second listen... but it is mainly Ari's verse that carries it to higher places.

 

Loves on first listen:

'Imagine'... should be a single!

'Pay Day' screams hit to me.

'Get Into It (Yuh)' makes me move in ways I... probably shouldn't as a skinny white boy, it has an anthem quality to it.

'You Right' would be my other choices.

 

Enjoyed (Likes):

'I Don't Do Drugs' which we covered.

'Love To Dream' does fit well with the album and singles we already heard.

'Options' is a real grower, a definate keeper! I can see this becoming a favourite.

 

Meh (atm): 'Woman', 'Naked', 'Been Like This', 'Ain't Shit' and 'Alone'... but might be a bit biased due to the 'Dr. Luke' songs.

 

But I didn't skip any.

I'm liking this after a first listen. You Right and Don't Do Drugs are the clear stand outs to me.

 

Kiss Me More seems weirdly out of place with the rest of the album though.

This album is so GOOD . Her versatility is incredible. I don’t think there’s a bad song on the album tbh.

This is a strong follow-up to 'Hot Pink'! I like that on the whole it's quite a chill, moody record but that doesn't stop her from bringing so much personality throughout.

 

My listen 1 favourites of the new songs:

 

Naked

I Don't Do Drugs

Been Like This

Options

Imagine

Alone

 

'Need To Know' has grown on me so much after initially not getting it too. Hoping that 'You Right' will click more.

I had another (3rd) listen this morning and I've pretty much added every one of the tracks to my main playlist.

 

'Woman' and 'Naked' really grew on me and 'I Don't Do Drugs' is already a favourite. (Suprise! :rolleyes:) :lol:

 

The only one I enjoyed less this listen was 'Love To Dream' and 'Been Like This', 'Ain't Shit' and 'Alone' are my only skips right now.

It's a great album, I love how consistent it is and she's oozing star quality and confidence throughout. Hot Pink didn't do loads for me as a full package but I like this one a lot more. You Right, I Don't Do Drugs and the opening few tracks were my instant highlights but I think a few others will grow with repeated plays :heart:

I did give this a listen last night and thought it was solid but nothing was really jumping out for me.
