Her entire album gave me such Amy Winehouse and Lauryn Hill vibes and I am absolutely enthralled! The musicality is just next level; the lyrics and how she plays with words to paint such vivid imagery is seriously top-tier. I sometimes pause on tracks that seem too much to handle in terms of its visual because I get taken aback by how vulnerable she has made herself in this album. This makes "My 21st Century Blues" hard to listen to. But this also makes it such an amazing album. I can't rate it enough; it's SO GOOD!
