Jul 16, 2015This is my album of 2015. This is new breed of music, a mix of R&B and Soul, with well written lyrics and tugs at the heart, at the essence of being Human.

Mar 23, 2016Jhene Aiko really gave us a brilliant R&B album. It is the type to relax to and really take in the chilling vibe that it gives off. This is a truly mesmerising album, for all fans of R&B. Definitely check this out

Sep 12, 2014There is something about her voice that is so beautiful and calming to me. This is the perfect album to just vibe with and go on a journey. Souled Out is no doubt my favorite album of 2014 & I look forward to all of her future releases.

Sep 18, 2014I cannot explain how much lovely and lonely she was when she recorded this album. "Souled Out" is an amazing perfection of R&B! Jhené has a pretty and calm voice that make me feel like I'm front of the sea seeing the sun comes down. This is a such high debut! I'm really in love with it so much! ♥

Sep 23, 2014Very powerful album. Cannot stop listening to Promises...one of the greatest songs I've heard in recent memory. Recommend this album to anyone who loves R&B

Sep 13, 2014Jhene Aiko nuk ka asnjë dyshim bërë një shenjë të madhe në R dhe B botë me këtë LP . E përbërë nga gati një orë , Ndershëm Out vjen me tekst të vështirë goditur , vokal të relaksuar dhe qetësues Jhene -së , dhe instrumentale të mëdha . Një konkurrent për albumin e vitit ! 10/10 !

Jul 25, 2015De moins en moins convaincu par l'estimation de cette artiste, qui l'est trop à mon goût. Le rythme est le même, les featurings n'apportent rien et on finit par connaître l'album en écoutant un seul morceau.
Voilà le problème des créateurs de Soul / Lounge. Mais je sais applaudir quand ils savent se réinventer. -
Jul 12, 2016This album is beautifully produced and vocally striking; however, in terms of lyrics, they are up to par, but Aiko tends to use one repeated line as her hook for most of her songs. In the future, I'd like to see her take more risks lyrically rather than playing it safe and making her hooks sound redundant.

Jul 8, 2016On of my favorite R&B albums ever. I just love the atmospheric production. It just gives this album a unique smoothness that is so rare to find in R&B. Jhene Aiko has such a beautiful voice, and I love the lyrics' overarching theme. Can't wait for her next full length LP.
Favs: To Love & Die, Eternal Sunshine, Limbo Limbo Limbo, Lyin King, Wading, Spotless Mind
Least Favs: It's Cool -
Oct 2, 2017I did not expect much from Jhene AIko. She was just another R&B singer who sounded kind of boring. Then I heard this album. GODDAMN, this album was great. Nice, trippy production, beautiful vocals from Ms. Aiko, and... honestly, lackluster lyrics. But thats my only problem. Good job. I love this album. 9/10

Mar 21, 2021A masterpiece... a really good and deeper album. One of my favorite albums.

Dec 18, 2014She may purr like a revamped Ashanti, but she sounds tough as nails when it matters.
-
Oct 27, 2014Her very personal, almost rapper-like approach to writing and melody is at its best on the LP’s most emotional cuts.
-
Sep 18, 2014Aiko’s producers, including No I.D. and Dot Da Genius, create expansive, inventive tracks that mirror the allure of her lithe vocals and intimate phrasing.
