Jessie Ware - Superbloom (2026)
It works while it’s on, but it never really pushes itself beyond that. The grooves are solid and the production is clean, so it’s easy to stay inside the album, but nothing really demands attention. The main issue is that it doesn’t build. It finds a lane early and just stays there, repeating the same level of energy without creating stronger moments. The choruses are fine, but they don’t lift enough to break that plateau. It ends up feeling more like a well-executed style exercise than something with real stakes. I can enjoy it passively, but I don’t feel a reason to come back to it or engage with it more deeply. Pros Strong groove foundation → the disco base keeps the album consistently listenable Clean and controlled production → everything is polished and easy to follow Cohesive aesthetic direction → clear retro identity without feeling messy Cons Weak chorus impact overall → some hooks land, but not enough real lift to carry the album Flat energy curve → tracks sit in...
