Billboard gave the album 84/100. She's knocking the ratings out.

Just bought the deluxe from ITUNES. Yeah, I'm still f**king with homegirl. Limbo Limbo Limbo is DOOOOPE. She makes that smoker music.
Edit: The production here is actually better than Sail Out, really, even though I love The Vapors and Bed Space. The first four songs on this CD are flawless. She deserves all the attention she is getting.

The album is growing on me. You definitely need to be in a certain mood to listen to it though.

I have been on stan mode due to her mixtapes so had HUGE expectations for the album.
1) why the hell did she start it off so dull with Limbo x3 cause it just drags and puts you to sleep 2) song 2 number and song 1 can just blend together into mediocrity 3) From TRACK 3-8 I WAS LIKE YASSSS THIS IS IT JHENE 4) dull after that.
That's when it hit me, she should've just done a EP consisting of songs song 3-8. I feel like there is that classic Jhene vibe, the lyrics are almost poetry but somehow overall the album falls a bit flat overall.
I would recommend it for To Love and Die, Spotless Minds, It's Cool, Lying King, WADING AND PRESSURE <3
One of my friends said it reminded them of Aaliyah, but for me it was more a lyrically superior Cassie. Aaliyah switched it up far more than this. However hate comparing the two of them, cause they evidently NOT the same.
Jhene will always make songs I love, but I'm not sure if a full album is what I need from her right now. I can't explain it but its almost like its too much of what I love about her THAT VIBE, overkill of it. It's like a vocalist who we enjoy their voice screaming all over the entire album. I just wanted a little bit of change up or curveball. I guess it will hit me more when i'm less turntUP and more melancholy

Limbo Limbo Limbo is probably the only song on the record that I don't care for. I dig everything else and stan hardcore for W.A.Y.S., Lyin King, Wading and Eternal Sunshine.

I really like the album, but I definitely think she needs to work with some new producers for her second album. Maybe some co-writers as well. I feel that she can push herself so much further, sonically. On another note, I'm surprised at how lackadaisical radio has been with the songs that have been sent there after "The Worst." I guess "The Worst" benefited a lot from the iHeartRadio On the Verge deal, but I was still expecting much more movement. I think "Lyin King" should be the next single, but, at this rate, is she even getting another one?
