Although this isn’t as good as Ogden’s first album, Future Forever pulls up and it delivers. It’s unique in production and its lyrics aren’t awful (they land somewhere in the middle for me with a few exceptions that are great). Great springtime album. Could it have improved some songs? Definitely. Is this a good release? For sure! Just very chill all around.
