This is the latest review by the Lazy Music Reviewer. He is too busy listening to and promoting lots of awesome music (ahem and has a full time job) that he simply doesn’t have time to do an in-depth review (or maybe he is just not a good enough writer to write one – you decide) but he still wants to “review”.
So, the way he works is he will sum up each song in just a few words (sometimes even one word – he’s just that lazy) and then also link via other people’s words to other more in depth reviews (because he’s wicked and he’s lazy) for your reading pleasure because it’s always good to get more than one person’s opinion, right?
So Good is the second studio album by Swedish singer and songwriter Zara Larsson, and her first released internationally.
It was released on 17 March 2017. The album was originally scheduled to be released in May 2016 and then in January 2017; however, it was delayed so that changes could be made to a number of tracks.
‘So Good’ reached number 7 in the UK album charts.
1 – What They Say
“what they say is this album is going to be awesome!”, The Lazy Music Reviewer
“the pop-ballad that never achieved major chart success“, Outlet
“lightly gilded in golden era R&B pop and polished with clean, modern production, albeit blemished by Ty Dollar $ign’s crass and unnecessary cameo“, The Line Of Best Fit
5 – TG4M
“bitter sweet“, The Lazy Music Reviewer
“an emotional pop song that works nicely after So Good“, Outlet
“lays self-deprecating lyrics over percolating electro beats“, NME
“a slowly lolloping, quasi-reggae track about masturbation“, The Guardian
7 – Never Forget You
“not so keen on the drum n bass“, The Lazy Reviewer
“teams her emotively with fellow pop talent MNEK“, NME
“proved her adeptness at the darker and dramatic side of pop, and showcased her a rhythmic flair in her voice to match her melody“, The Line Of Best Fit
8 – Sundown
“sorry, I don’t want to get on the bounce“, The Lazy Music Reviewer
