    Kacey sings the same on all tracks, not emotion, no feeling, only autotune voice and a very mediocre bourgeoi soundscape.

    It´s a boring album most of the times. Sometimes it has it high points like in Rainbow and Slow Burn but it´s not worth listening. The lyrics are kind of basic and totally expected to hear. Great voice but the rest it's just meh.

    Golden Hour imagines a world much sweeter than the one we’re living in; and for 45 minutes, it can just about take you there. Kacey Musgraves’ golden hour is far from over.

    Golden Hour is a bedazzled, wide-eyed rush.
