Critical reception
Entertainment Focus writer Pip Ellwood-Hughes gave the album 2.5 stars out of 5, stating that "there’s nothing wrong with it per se but it’s all just a little bit safe and underwhelming."[4] Emma Clarendon of Love London Love Culture was also mixed, writing that "Overall, there are plenty of highlights on the album but it feels that it is slightly all over the place emotionally and in terms of the tone that means it doesn’t feel quite coherent as a whole."[5]
