"best of 2023 until may, a kind of mix of sigur ros with perfume genious and jessie ware, good instrumental quality, good production but not excessive. The album flows perfectly, it has no hits, it counts as a whole."  Reply

"I can't say there's a female rapper that I consider belonging among my absolute favorites, as I usually find it hard to connect/relate with them. But there is one exception to the above rule and it's Bahamadia - with all due respect to some other undoubtedly great femcees. I just love her deliver..."  [+]  Reply

"Love it, love it, love it. So much fun, sounds like summer and like being young and drinking with your friends. Insane hooks and catchy pop melodies make this an enjoyable ride. Will always consider this record a soundtrack for my last year of high school."  Reply

"A cracking wee album. Touches of Placebo and Manic Street Preachers. Bits of Muse. It is a poppy indie rock. Couldn't place his accent - but soon discovered Irish connection"  Reply
