DON'T LOOK BACK IN ANGER : THE ALBUMS, 2017.


16/syd/fin

Ain't nothing you can tell her, she grown. Debut album, track one, she immediately makes this known. And over the course of Fin, the 25 year old Odd Future affiliate and member of The Internet luxuriates in rhythm & blues that is both grown and sexy. Syd's Fin is a smooth, sensual LP that floats like a butterfly when the destination of the bedroom is within reach, and stings like a bee whenever a reminder is needed that she is no ordinary woman, and this is no ordinary love. Like Aaliyah's One in a Million before it -an album Fin is close to in spirit- Syd's debut is an R&B album that exudes sexuality and confidence without overplaying it, and sits comfortably in R&B's past while moving the genre forward. It's a Top 5 R&B album that plays it cool, brought to you by a young woman who came from nothing to something, and got her own. Whip appeal for days.

KEY TRACKS: Smile More/Body/Insecurities
