I'm feeling both of these offerings. Her voice has this beautiful crisp rasp to it, very pleasant.

This feels like a non-event thus far. I think she's incredibly talented, but something has felt off since her sophomore era.

Also, kudos to The Other Two for name-dropping her ALL season:

the song with CHIKA is solid. some of the rest of the album played after that but nothing really grabbed my attention.

Yeah, it sucks that this beautiful voice gets such bland material. Technically, there's nothing horrible with the album, there's just nothing that really grabs you.
I continue to stan Sweet Dream, cause the lyrics are smart. Other than that, Box in the Ocean and Bluebird gave this album hope.

I think "Lie to Me" and "Apartment Song" have potential to be hits, but I wouldn't be surprised if there isn't even a second radio single.

Holy shit that's awful. I feel so bad for her. She had so much potential and it seems to have just been squandered by mismanagement from every aspect of her career.

How one goes from winning best new artist at the Grammys (just 3 years ago) to not charting at all will always be astonishing to me.

Didn't chart on the Top 200. She's done! Such sad news. Her debut peaked at #9, while her sophomore peaked at #71, but I thought she’d maybe place in the 100s. I see it on the Current Albums Chart at #46 and the Billboard Canadian Albums at #83, so at least we know some people bought the album. Side note: I finally listened to her This Summer EP, and I was surprised at how GOOD it is. Her debut was hit/miss with me, while her sophomore grew on me, so it was a pleasant surprise that the EP instantly caught me.

Based on Rolling Stone’s chart, it would’ve only taken about 6-7k SPS to crack the main chart so it is kinda baffling that she can’t even generate that much interest in her new music. I wonder if this album fulfills her contract with Def Jam and they were just ready to release it and her. She’s probably better off indie at this point.

I finally had some free time to listen to this in full, and it's pretty good. It makes me sad that she's fallen so much from the GP radar, she's a really clever songwriter and her smokey voice is underrated. The album is solid all the way through, there's not a song I dislike and there are a couple with hit potential (Lie To Me being the obvious one). Maybe she was never edgy enough to create a big fanbase?
I hope she goes indie and continues releasing music on her own. She's a really talented girl and she seems like such a sweetheart, so I'm rooting for her.

“Scars to Your Beautiful” passed 1 billion streams on Spotify. I’m surprised that one ended up being the enduring hit from her album instead of “Here”

She should at least try and release something that sounds like a lead single.

It wouldn't hurt for her to try a full-on R&B project at this point. At least that's what I'm more excited to hear from her.

“Sweet Dream” is currently the most downloaded track on Rhythmic. Does anyone know what’s up with that? It’s not under Cool New Music or anything.

I didn't even know she released a 3rdv album, I just remember Sweet Dreams and Shapeshifter both being decent, she should so go indie.

I will forever be mad that Lie To Me wasn’t the lead single off of this album.
