    A lot of it at least. Definitely reminiscent of Lorde’s Pure Heroine on many tracks, which I love.

    I've always found it well-produced but also very bland in terms of songwriting.

    Definitely feels a little bit tailored to the 'I'm 14 and this is deep' crowd. IMHO of course.

    Yeah I agree @E_Schaaf, I was going to say it’s kind of a more immature, bratty version of Lorde. Definitely does NOT compare to Pure Heroine, not even close (don’t want to give that impression).

    I tried it a few weeks ago. I felt very old and out of touch :-)

    I like it, but made the mistake of watching a video 1st... like she injected botox too low on her face & lips numb... now can't un-think that ;) -- ok ok, that was the point :D -- follows thru the music also

    She kicks ass. Best debut album by a teenager.

    She also seems like a really cool person, and what she and her brother have accomplished in a tiny studio room in their parents' house is remarkable. Both very talented.

    Ironically I think I like the opening track the least. I’m certainly not the target either, but can appreciate the production and musical aspects, and actually like her voice (even though a lot of the lyrics/writing is as E_Schaaf says). Potential to mature on future albums hopefully and not double down on the immature BS. Won’t be on the top of my playlist, but still enjoyable.

    Check out on YouTube the few performances she did on the Howard Stern show with her brother. In some ways, I like those more than the album (which I played for the first time tonight).
