Tei Shi is one of the reasons I love alternative R n B LA Linda shows her embracing her Spanish roots and evoking nostalgia with songs like Even if it Hurts that hopefully I won't forget in my lifetime

Opulent, lush and incredibly elegant followup to Crawlspace with some of her best, specially on the first half of the record. I admire her laidback, easygoing approach to a sound that has been approached a lot of times and making it her own. We stan a queen of making hits. Love this, Val.

Good follow up to Crawl Space. Generally a more focused sound, really mellow and airy production with some gorgeous vocals. The second half is especially strong with more interesting production while the first half has a few just okay tracks.

relistened to this album today... after 2 years hehe

I guess I finally found the right time to listen to this. When it came out I wasn't in the right space to take this album in so I thought I wasn't into it. I still wonder why she took Red Light off of it... it was my favourite. Anyways, this was a nice follow-up to her first album; definitely a room open for experimentation sonically and vocally on some of these songs.

fav (apart from the singles): addict, thief, we
least fav: no juegues

destaques: when he's done, no juegues
irrelevantes: twilight, we (sério, como fechar um álbum com "we"? péssima escolha..)
