Probably the same as her other records

Dull, repetitive mumbled nonsense with no redeeming musical merit.

I kind of have to agree. She has moments . . . like she or her brother find good beats and again she finds little ways to pivot and use her voice in a way that is really emotive and pretty . . .

BUT she relies so heavily on the same vocal tone and the same limiting range that when it's the entirety of the song and is MULTIPLE songs it just . . . loses the appeal. She doesn't mix it up enough.

Not everything can be sort of monotoned like that and not have ways to give it flourish. I know she isn't a belter but there are ways to inflect or add texture that she just hasn't figured out yet that would give her more dimension musically.

It's like when Lana Del Rey hit that bump for a while and released stuff like "High By The Beach " because it was just a formula that worked.

Another collection of mumble whispers.

I feel like she missed a step, she went from off-beat and quirky, to an opener for Chet Baker. She's got the range to make interesting melody, yet the beats need to get off the couch again.

Hoping for either a grindcore or skramz route.

be nice to see her collaborate with some other artists, hopefully some obscure but talented people who could use the exposure.

Honestly I agree. I think she needs someone who is like her but different to add a little mayhem or someone to take her under their wing.

I think KIMBRA would be the perfect person. KIMBRA is a fucking madwoman when it comes to production, versatility, mixing it up, remixing herself live, using technology. She's a genius. I think Billie could learn a LOT from her.

I feel like it might be the same as her last two albums, but if she can switch up her style and start incorporating other genres and maybe add some fun guest artists she can definitely make an AOTY. One can only hope

Whispering over beep boop beats. Only with cleavage this time.

It’ll probably sound like every other pop record that’s coming out right now.

Like she is in the bathroom singing to herself very quietly while sitting on the toilet.

She will whisper while a bass track and soft synth keyboard chords play in the background in 4/4 time. Some program percussion will come in on the quarter notes and eventually build to a chorus where she’ll almost sorta sing.

It will sound like something that I hate. This I can pretty much be sure of.
