eaJ continues to show improvement on his new EP. His production is just as great as ever and is slowly starting to come into his own on this one. The lyrics are also getting a lot more better on this. However, he still has issues with being slightly derivative of his other contemporaries. I’m hoping that he can step out of his comfort zone a little bit on his next project and show us something more bold, new, and interesting. I will continue to see his growth.

I really do think that Jae has cracked the ep formula - whilst this doesn't touch my feelings for 'when the rain stopped following me', Ireally did enjoy it <3 I'm glad that Jae has been able to find his pattern and solo voice since leaving day6 :')

track ranking:
- no one's fault
- safe in the rain
- enemy
- lennon
- la stars
