This album is a masterpiece. The lyrics alone are so thought-provoking, and then you add the production elements and bam! You've got an album you will be doing a deep dive on.

I have many thoughts, but I also can't really conceptualize them all. I've been sitting on this one for months now, and I still feel like I can't even entirely list out why this album is so good.

While the topic may not be something wholly unique Vu puts her own spin on it and each track carves your way into your subconscious as you're listening. I am excited for her next album because I feel like this is a predecessor to ... read more
