Squeeze is so romantic. I don't think it's cheesy I think it's just intimate I love it.

This album is a grower and even tho I still hate Work from Home the rest of the tracks are really good. The production is one of the best things about the record. Too bad there is nothing as good a Top Down on this one

Flex, Dope, I Lied, WFH, and That's My Girl are my favorites!
I'm obsessed with Dope. Julia Michaels, Justin Tranter and Jack Antonoff are amazing songwriters

So over one week over the release of this album here it's my review
1 That's My Girl
Nice song, very powerful and loud, Ally sounds great on the first verse, Lauren's and Camila's voices sounds very good together and Normani really goes hard on the pre-chorus, I like how energetic this song is but it can be too loud and while the lyrics are good it's hard for me to identify or connect with them.
2 Work From Home
My favorite from the album I don't see that ever chaning, it's very catchy and it is an excellent lead-single
3 The Life
What a fun song definitely not something that should be a single but it's an innofensive pop fun song and it works
4 Write On Me
Nice song but I think it's nothing special, it doesn't have much replay-value to me
5 I Lied
One of the highlights of the album, great song, I feel like the chorus is lacking something to make it totally amazing but it's still great Lauren sounds great on the verse and pre-chorus and Dinah and Normani really show their voices.
6 All In My Head
Great song, Fetty Wap actually adds something great to it, I wish that Ally's and Camila's verses were different but it's not a big deal to me, I like how the key change on the chorus from Dinah to Normani, I was not expecting that the first time
7 Squeeze
I like this a lot, maybe it would be better with a big change on the production, maybe a little bit more of DJ Snake style and less Kygo but anyway, the pre-chorus is great, Lauren again sounds fantastic and I usually dislike Camila's voice but I love her on the last chorus, she adds an edge that the final chorus needed.
8 Gonna Get Better
I like the intro, Ally's voice is beautiful on this, she really show a lot of emotion and the beat and Camila's voice on the first verse are just amazing, it's weird how this is the second song in a row in which I love Camila, still I have some complaints about this song, first the fact that by the minute 1:05 they had already sing all the lyrics and they just repeat them, also, the bridge is very weak and the last two chorus doesn't sound right to me, I think the emotion get's lost
9 Scared of Happy
The first part of this song had so much potential but I dislike the chorus production so much that it ruins the whole song to me
10 Not That Kinda Girl
Probably the song I dislike the most on the album, Normani sounds great on her verse but I don't like the overall vibe and sound of it, it's not that I think it's a bad song but it's just not the type of music I usually like, and I also don't like Missy's part and dislike the vocals on the chorus
11 Dope
Okay song, I don't find it special and I don't relate to it so that doesn't help
12 No Way
One of my favorites, Lauren is really amazing, her verse and the chorus are wonderful, actually her voice in the chorus it's the only thing that got me absolutely surprised on the whole album, I love Ally on this too, and I like the vibe of this, lyrics are great.
13 Big Bad Wolf
I love the production on this one, it has this dark but fun and sexy vibe.
14 1000 Hands
Probably my second most disliked song, they sound great but I just think this is boring.

Is this the first time you've seen it? First happened on the Austin tour when Camila missed a performance in Philiadelphia while being checked out in the hospital. Lauren missed a couple performances (1st Honda stage youtube set, televised performance on the Talk) Reflection release week when her grandmother died. Then Dinah missed a couple performances sick and on meds back in September of last year when they were doing the Maryland and NY state fairs. Normani first missed a performance at the Premios Telehit in Mexico when her great grandmother died.
The only 4 piece formation we've yet to see is a performance without Ally.

Next singles after 'All in My Head' should be:
-'That's My Girl';
-'Scared of Happy';
-'Dope'.
This would be a great combo, the best tracks on the album imo.

No idea tbh.
Funny how this era was so promising and everything and now it's like it ended with the album's release.

No stress, baby you can find us
Getting down on a beach in Dubai
Pool side, sipping on a Mai Tai
Double up, run it back on my mind
This is the life, life, life, this is the life, life, life
This is the life, life, life, this is the life, life, life
This is the life, life, life, this is the life, life, life
This is the life, life, life, this is the life
