Chesstown King's Reviews and Thoughts

  The latest Sabrina Carpenter album is a good one. Sure there aren’t really that many stellar songs but there aren’t any songs I didn’t like that much. Lead single “Manchild” is a solid track. Some other stand outs include "We Almost Broke Up Again" and "Never Getting Laid". On the latter she wishes an ex never has sex again lol. I liked "Sugar Talking" too. "Tears" is a very sexual song...but it's very playful. On some ways Sabrina seems more effective on this album than she was on Short n Sweet.....but in other ways it could be seen as a step down. The production was solid throughout. And yeah I have the version of the album with the deluxe picture....the regular picture is atrocious.....like what was she thinking? Overall though its a win for Sabrina as this is a very well rounded album. Lyrics 22 Beats 23 Depth 23 Tilt 22 Verdict 90

 I gotta admit I wasn't a fan of hers at all before I heard this album. A lot of these songs are really catchy as she brings a lot of charm to them. "Taste" is a great opener.....then she hits you with the infectious "Please Please Please". I love the chorus....the un edited version is so funny. "Bed Chem" is a song that I loved after it became a radio hit. Sabrina's singing is pretty damn good....not amazing but definitely good. "Good Graces" is another banger. Of course tho...on this album, "Espresso" is as good as it gets. I don't like every song here but for the most part this is a solid album with great production. She's basically what Katy Perry was in 2010.... Lyrics 22 Beats 23 Depth 23 Tilt 23 Verdict 91
