Her debut US EP dropped today. It's pretty meh IMO. Her voice is fine on all the tracks, but the material is too weak for her to break in the US.

"Lush Life" is still climbing in some countries, including the UK. They should re-release it in the US after "Never Forget You" becomes a hit. I can see it becoming a spring/summer hit here (a full year after it was first released).
...and since this thread hasn't been updated in over a year:

"Lush Life" knocks. And the girl is a knockout.
I have a gut feeling that she'll be this year's big breakout.
Just checked out her live performances. Jaw officially dropped.

Her international debut album (or second overall album) is called So Good. She said the following about the title of the album in Texas-based radio station AMP 103.7, which was compiled by the Official Charts: "So Good. I hate coming up with titles for things because it's hard - you're supposed to take all of the songs and kinda summarise it in one word and I just thought So Good was easy because the album is so good."

The album, which contains 15 tracks, will be released on March 17. The singles "Lush Life", "Never Forget You" (with MNEK), "Ain't My Fault", "I Would Like" and the title track are available as instant grats. Also, two of the songs (tracks #12 and #14) are labeled as explicit.

I've been waiting so long for this! I hope Zara achieves the success that she desires. She is incredibly talented.

FINALLY! My only thing is that there better not be an intro/outro or interludes because two of the songs are pushing two years old and I need the maximum amount of music I can get from her.

She's got "it." The rollout and her label have been kind of messy, but her confidence and talent are off the charts for a new act. I get a bit of very early Rihanna confidence from her, and I hope she is able to get the management support she deserves and that she is able to navigate the industry as well as Rih.

So this is out there now, and it's a very strong debut. On my initial listen, it gets lost in that aimless midtempo filler thing that a lot of modern pop albums have, but it's great overall. Probably the best pop debut of the past year or so.
I am officially a Larssonist

Listening to the album (minus all the tracks released before the album):
What They Say: JAM TG4M: Like it Only You: strange 1st two lyrics lol, love this one Sundown: INFECTIOUSLY CATCHY, love the tropical tinged taste on this one (totally could see this as a single) Don't Let Me Be Yours: Super catchy as well Make That Money Girl: Solid One Mississippi: Skeptical title, but I actually really like the lyrics of this one, very good track Funeral: Love this one I Can't Fall In Love With You: I really like the vulnerable feel across the song Symphonies: LOVE LOVE LOVE
Overall: The album is all I wanted from her tbh, I thought most of the album was gonna be like So Good & Ain't My Fault, which are solid but not as great as Lush Life & NFY. So happy with the album
