Willow is amazing, but the musicianship on this album is absolutely stunning. Major props to Willow for being different, and for getting together with musicians who can translate her artistry.

@robbielux83537 ай бұрын
What I love about Willow is she’s directionless and that’s what makes her a breathe of fresh air. She can tackle any genre.
@angelicaterry33677 ай бұрын
no she has direction, she's just not limited by genre and so her direction is limitless. A person with no direction is unmoored, they have no anchor. Willow has solid foundations for example her ability to play the guitar since she was 14. She has an ear for music and it seems studied. She comes across as an educated musician who then lets her neurons dictate were she goes musically. She is freedom. You learn and then you allow what you learn to dictate direction but it only works if you have a mindful understanding of fear. Fear will have you feeling like you fighting for your life just cos it might feel good to change direction.

@@angelicaterry3367really well-said. She is far from directionless, I would say untethered or unencumbered by existing norms is more like it. She chooses her direction(s) thoughtfully and plays with all genres her own way. Big difference, and the OG post may have *intended* to say what you did, but words have distinct meanings, and “directionless” just isn’t accurate here. Yet we all agree, she’s setting a new standard/example & we’re all very much here for it!!

I don't usually listen to new music since we're so used to seeing most artists these days do similar things from each other and it does get quite repetitive at times BUT listening to this album in its entirety gave me a lot of hope because it made me realize that maybe there are some artists in this day and age who dares to be different with their art. Artists who are AUTHENTIC. and I mean GENUINE AUTHENTICITY, not artists who claims that they're "authentic" but then aren't. She's a rare diamond in this world. She's truly authentic and unique to her core. She has her own sound and doesn't want to replicate what's already out there into the world. She truly stands out in the sea of so many artists in this day and age. Her aura is unlike anything I've ever gotten to experience before. She's truly one of a kind. A real precious gem!
