pink lightning Posted March 23 Posted March 23 That was such a vibe, great album and I was not expecting the Becky G random collab to serve as much as it did! Breathe Me is the highlight for me for now, so sexy and sultry, can't wait to see what she has in store for the future
highdefinition Posted March 23 Posted March 23 Safer is iconic I feel like it should have been called Running but i loveee the album
Scandalous Posted March 23 Posted March 23 this is solid i really love Safer a nice breezy listen, it'll pop off in the summer
Domination Posted March 23 Posted March 23 Solid album. Maybe a bit formulaic at times but the girl could have some staying power.
Automatic Posted March 23 Posted March 23 (edited) Not her saying she narrowed down from 130 tracks. I'm sure some of them were a mess but I know some gems were in there too. We'll never hear them Edited March 23 by Automatic
hallucinate Posted March 23 Posted March 23 (edited) i think this is a really nice debut album very cohesive but doesn't have many tracks that stand out imo Edited March 23 by hallucinate 1
rnb Posted March 23 Posted March 23 the vibe of this album is the perfect mix of dance/afro-beats while also having a laid back kind of feel 1
Bencharmer Posted March 23 Posted March 23 Highly surprised by that album. It's so immersive and loungy.
KatyPrismSpirit Posted March 23 Posted March 23 7.3M debut is definitely nothing to scoff at considering she only has one major hit so far. And 84/100 on Metacritic is great. Wondering if P4k wil review this 1

I just hope she's stable enough to stay above 5M throughout the week. 1
GeminiCat Posted March 24 Posted March 24 Very strong debut. I absolutely love Breathe Me, Jump, No. 1, Safer and Priorities. If she keeps making acclaimed bodies of work like this, she will be fine even if she never has a Water sized hit. My only complaint is I would've swapped one of the mid-tempos like Butterflies for popiano banger Been Thinking. Looking forward to how she and her team maps out the rest of this era.
masochizm Posted March 24 Posted March 24 (edited) I'm unsure why people are using the fact that amapiano is the reason why this album sounds like 14 different rehashes of the same song? Amaarae's album is miles more diverse in terms of sound and is still amapiano/afrobeats in its core. I'm not complaining since I know this is her debut but I wish she explored a LOT more.

chiliam Posted March 24 Posted March 24 The album is surprisingly good. The beat make it feel like lounge music, but her voice have charisma. Overall a solid debut.
Crayzik Posted March 24 Posted March 24 Safer is still my favorite but there is something about Breathe Me

Because when people are using things like this for their argument, it shows they listen to very little Amapiano… I can point out at least 30 other Amapiano songs that use a similar drum pattern. Critiquing melody, vocal range, lyrical content, etc…all valid reasons to say it's the same. But to talk about drum patterns + use of log drum is giving ignorance. Mainly from people on Twitter… Pretty sure neither song is in same key or even same tempo either. 1
