>>39135792well personally I like it, but if you want a more objective opinion there's a huge degree of variety in the songs to the point everyone will like at least a couple of them
There's also a variety of themes in the lyrics and structures, as well as flow and mixing, you can really tell she wanted to experiment a bunch
Some of the songs have bridgeswhich I consider a bit lazy in terms of structure, but they're catchy enough
In fact almost all of them are undeniably catchy as far as the melody goes, though some may be disappointed by the use of autotune. Personally I don't mind since it's clearly used to create a more extraneous effect rather than to correct pitch
Lyrics are a mixed bag, some songs have impressive lines while others are weaker and a bit too rmeiniscent of older tracks, but imho they make up for it with catchyness
Finally I think the overall theme of the album was very interesting and well conveyed through the song
Overall you can really feel the effort she put in making everything on here, even with some meddling by UMG, and I think that's commendable
At the end of the day wether or not you like the songs themselves, that's a matter of personal taste, which is unquantifiable
Personally I like all of them, with my favourite being Dance Past Midnight and my least favourite being I'm Greedy, which is simply not my genre, with an overindulgent chorus and some tonally incongrous lines
7-8/10 alternative album
