Why would Jhene and Nashe have beef? Did I miss that? There are some year-old speculations that recently resurfaced and were spread by online blogs. No real tea so far.

Those features are a sleep sleep. On top of that, I expect it to be another 70-min mantra session.
If any of the individual cuts are cute, I'll listen of course.

I made it all the way to “Born Tired” before I tapped out. Ironically enough. I’ll listen to the rest sometime tomorrow or over the weekend.

I had no idea this would be out so soon. Excited to hear it eventhough I have a feeling it'll sound nothing like my favorite projects from her (all her releases leading up to Souled Out). Sad to see that Trigger Protection Mantra didn't make the cut.

I definitely think this is her most “commercial” release yet, which is not a bad thing. I’m glad it’s not as heavy as Trip. She’s a lot more positive and optimistic in these songs. Gorgeous vocal arrangements, as usual .. I actually hear vocal improvement overall. I wonder if she’s been working with someone?

I haven't listened yet! I'm waiting til I have time to really kick back and listen.

I'ma need to listen to this again after smoking. Jhene albums are always a whole nother experience high. I am starting to wonder if I have reached my limit. There are some artists that I have actually moved on from because it's like...OK, this is who you are as an artist, I get it. You know who you are and your strengths. However, after an EP and 2 long albums of the same thing, do I REALLY need any more? Is it essential listening/missing from my life and the answer in Jhene's case may be no. I did a quick clip listen and I was like oh ok, more of the same. Knowing my weak ass, I will probably buy it anyway.

Yeah, I don't do nearly enough drugs to appreciate this in full because the "vibe" stretches on for way too long but I do appreciate that she commits to melody and hooks more often than many of her peers.

Man it'll be sad to see this completely outperformed on apple and in general by uzi's album. I'm kinda conflicted tho cause I love uzi as well I just want Jhene to have a #1 album

Look at Jhene doing it!
Also, Lightning & Thunder may be her best song period. Wasn't sure anything could top Bed Space but...here we are. The album is another Jenny Achy album meaning...either you are into it or not. That said, I'm glad she is switching up things a little bit with her last 2 albums, ever so slightly. She also sounds SUBLIME. Her vocals on L&T and Magic Hour are flawless.

Jhené is always a mood. I get that it’s more of the same but I appreciate her and what she does. This album was easier to take in vs Trip. From the this set (on first listen) I enjoyed Triggered None of Your Concern Happiness Over Everything Pussy Fairy B.S. Born Tired Lightning & Thunder I will have to listen this over the next few weeks to really let it sink in. Her projects usually take time to click for me. Her debut and her EP with Bed Peace still take the cake for me.

L&T emerged from the blurred shadows after a few more listens. Adding that to the mix gives me a nice 11-track, 40-minute album to vibe to.

This may sound ridiculous but I think the length of the songs makes this easier to get through. I think this was the opposite on Trip.

OK. This actually might go on to be my favorite Jenny album, although, it's kinda hard to rank her albums, honestly. It is probably over Trip just because it isn't as long and seems more digestible and has more highlights. Souled Out was FLAWLESS though. It also says a lot that this album is actually only 4 songs shorter than Trip, but everything, like on Souled Out, seems to belong and be necessary. I have decided she will be like Jewel - one of those artists that I will just automatically buy because something about her is so peaceful and refreshing to my spirit. She has also been low-key working on the vocals. She was never a BAD vocalist, but not a particularly STRONG one. Some songs like Born Tired and LOVE and 10K Hours are just beautiful. Lightning and Thunder through the end of the album is just magical.

Can someone whittle this album down to 10-12 tracks. There’s no way I can get thru a coma inducing album.

The production on "Tryna Smoke" is beautiful. I wish she'd explore an organic sound with live instruments more often.
Something with a marked jazz influence like "10k Hours" suits her so well.
