Malcolm Todd never disappoints! This feels like a mix between the pace of self-titled and the groovyness of Sweet Boy, with an additional nostalic feeling to it and hornier lyrics. A lot of melodies are very pleasant and memorable as usual with Malcolm and the production is amazing.
There are some flat moments and lyrics (especially in some verses or on a few tracks like Difficult Love and Good Bye) but it's a minority of cases and the choruses are almost always great.

This album is more pop and less sharp than her two next albums but it's still pretty good. A sad and melancholic record where Lola opens up about her insecurities. There is no skip for me, the lyrics are very well written and her voice sounds very good and emotionally engaging. However there's a lack of diversity and instrumental richness.

A refreshing record with many amazing songs, catchy hooks and guitar riffs. The mixtape is overall quite repetitive, sonically, instrumentally and lyrically, but the tracks individually are almost all great. The project is packed with bangers. As a mixtape and not an album, it's great as it is and many people can find great songs to add to their playlist among those 16. It's a great start for Malcolm who is clearly very talented.

"I love you more than you will know // For that reason I let you go cause I'm not the one you dream about" 🥺
This song has an incredible feeling, both euphoric and deeply sad at the same time. The melody is really catchy, Malcolm's voice is amazing and the lyrics are very well written. The production is perfect, especially the guitars. It's way better than Breathe for me. Hyped for the album!
