criticism

The long player received widely differing reviews, while the majority of the album was rated as successful and good, with the arrangement being described as bombastic and innovative , her voice as powerful and breathy or the songs as high quality , magical and fresh , the "long player" also received very negative reviews. Laut.de, for example, only gave the CD one of five rating units. The work has nothing to do with soul, her thin voice is crushed by too thick baffles and the album lacks any whistle.
