Apr 4, 2017Above Average
It's listenable to, very chill album, but nothing out of the ordinary, certainly can't compare with her times with Timbaland.
She tried some new styles but also tried to keep some of her old self in this album, and it worked to an extent, but not the way i think she was planning.
Top 3 songs: Cold Heart Truth, Palaces and Magic

Apr 10, 2017Longevity is often characterised by reinvention in music, yet The Ride stalls in its attempted inventiveness, instead finding success in its most pared down and familiar moments.

Apr 5, 2017The problem with The Ride is just that it’s a lot duller than it should be, and it feels even more disappointing given that her most successful work is also her most eccentric.

Apr 3, 2017This is unabashedly a pop album, full of big melodies and simple metaphors, that adds just a bit of analog fuzz to her usually pristine sound.
