Dork
Her croons remain beautiful and thought-provoking, and her talent shines through; there is a definite sense of indulgence as she explores her sound. This is just the start for an artist rekindling her individuality

Overall, a pleasantly harmless album with some clear highlights. However, it will be interesting to see how the US singer varies her work as she begins her solo career
