The first 6 tracks sound like they were rejected for a Steps album, kinda dated radio 2 music and over produced. IMHO they chose the wrong singles, hopefully brave enough to release track 7, Your Age, next as its a banger and then get a new A and R if there’s a next album as her voice holds up when its not drowned by production.
i don’t quite agree about the first 6 tracks, but i agree that “your age” could’ve been a stronger single
Nice s*** to bump & grind to but her name weird asf!! No shade but couldn’t she think of a better name
The album is 🔥I love it RIna has done it again. I’m ready for the live performances for the songs cause she excels at bringing them to life
