Energetic pop anthems dominate, but the album lacks depth for lasting engagement.

What we noticed

  • Vocals are layered with harmonies and ad-libs, particularly in the chorus of 'Domino' and 'Price Tag', enhancing their anthemic quality.
  • The last track is a remix that extends the original song, adding a different arrangement while keeping the core elements intact.
