== Album Review ==
{{Cquote|Before streaming this album in full, the only songs I knew were He Wasn't Man Enough For Me, The Heat and Spanish Guitar. After streaming this album in full for this entire week, I can honestly say that it is a solid album for its time. I didn't fall in love with every song, but the other tracks that now like are Just Be a Man About It and Fairy Tale. Fairy Tale is very dreamy and complements her voice very well. I also like Maybe as well, will definitely come back to that jam and will add it to my R&B playlist. |author=King Warz (October 10, 2025)}}

|-
| He Wasn’t Man Enough || 9 || The first time I heard this song was probably on TikTok when she was singing it live and went towards her sister Tamar and hugged her. I remember liking the song's vibe from that moment and still love it very much. So amazing.
|-
| The Heat || 9 || My fucking jam. Gets me moving!
|-
| Spanish Guitar || 9 || Love this one very much. I honestly get "Un-Break My Heart" vibes from it.
|-
| Just Be a Man About It || 7.9 || Oh this one is really good. Reminds me of "Oh Yes" by Whitney.
|-
| Gimme Some || 7.7 || Not bad. Don't see myself coming back to it too much though. Love the rapping parts.
|-
| I’m Still Breathing || 6 || Didn't entice me on first listen.
|-
| Fairy Tale || 8 || I thought the chorus on this was going to be better but it's a good cleaning the house song to vibe to.
|-
| The Art of Love || 5.9 || The vibe is sexy and nice but I don't get what this song is all about. I guess it's an interlude? It feels too long to me and not enticing enough for me to revisit it.
|-
| Speaking in Tongues || 7.5 || Like the oh la la part. Dreamy song. It's nice.
|-
| Maybe || 7.6 || Like the note at the end of the song and a more appealing chorus to me.
|-
| You’ve Been Wrong || 7.2 || More catchier hook than Fairy Tale but nothing that really got my attention.
|-
| Never Just for a Ring || 6.9 || Eh.
