~~~~~~~Conclusion~~~~~~~

Once I started listening to the album I immediately fell in love with her voice. Her songs don’t rely on fancy hooks, distracting (loud to cover the singing) beats, but pure vocal talent. The lyrics are ‘down to earth’ and are sung with heartfelt emotion.

Best quality of the album: Brilliant vocals skills throughout

Worst quality of the album: Lengthy breaks during some songs where you think the song is finish because there no vocals but the song continues (pointlessly/boring).

Overall: 4/5
