Feb 6, 2023The record is not as dominating as Twain’s existing body of work, but it externalizes a beloved household name getting to know herself better.
-
Feb 3, 2023An over eagerness to keep up to date has resulted in making Twain sound less mature than her successor. On Queen of Me, Twain comes across as Swift’s over eager auntie, charging onto the dancefloor, determined to prove she still has the moves to cut it with the kids.

Feb 2, 2023Were Twain willing to engage with additional genres, it’s quite possible Queen of Me would hold up as a more engrossing listen. Instead, what we’re given is the audio equivalent of speed dating. The songs hint at Twain’s vivacious personality, but never quite let us in.

Feb 3, 2023Twain’s team of co-writers and producers have past credits with Halsey, Justin Bieber, Pitbull, Fred again.., and Iggy Azalea, and too often the material they’ve assembled for Twain feels like third-tier scraps intended for other clients. Queen of Me’s bland and plasticine arrangements are a far cry from the energy and sizzle of hits like “That Don’t Impress Me Much” and “Man! I Feel Like a Woman.”
-
Feb 14, 2023The end results feel curiously constrained, as if Twain was dancing in front of a mirror instead of underneath a mirrorball.

Feb 3, 2023Simply put....I'm obsessed with this album! Have had it playing non-stop since downloading it. Did not find any one song that I didn't like.
