MusicReview: Sweet Talker

So many of you know Jessie J, but how many of you actually appreciate her music?

Jessie J if you don't know is a current pop artist who's first major hit, "Price Tag",  took off in early 2011. Since then Jessie has released several hits including "Domino","Bang Bang", and her most recent album "Sweet Talker".

Jessie's newest album covers everything from partying to the difficulties of love. "Sweet Talker" is a 15 track album and today we are gonna dive in. So fasten your seat belts and hold on tight, because here we go!

The first song on the album is "Ain't Been Done" which is an up-beat song that sets a good mood for the album ahead.

Next up we have "Burnin' Up". This song features 2 Chainz, and talks about the heat and passion of love.

She then leads you in to the albums title song "Sweet Talker". "Sweet Talker" is about a man who clearly knows what he's doing. ðŸ˜‰

Following is "Bang Bang" , which has been a huge hit all over the world! "Bang Bang" features Jessie, Ariana Grande, and Nicki Minaj. "Bang Bang" is about the ladies of this song discussing their sexual power. Some even believe this song is the newest female empowerment anthem!

The next track featured on "Sweet Talker" goes hand in hand with "Sweet Talker".
"Fire" covers the hurt that comes from not being able to pull away from the irresistible fire of the one she doesn't want to love.

"Personal" follows "Fire" and shares Jessie past tendencies. Saying things like,

We then have my personal favorite track of the album, "Masterpiece". This song is pretty much just a 'haters gonna hate' song, and follows the same tempo of "Personal".

"Seal Me With A Kiss" is a track about Jessie seeing a boy she wants to kiss. Plain and simple!

"Said Too Much" combats a man who has wronged Jessie J! Saying you have already said to much and that it's too late for us.

"Loud" features hit YouTube violinist Lindsey Sterling, and is a song about the influence of the world. This is something many artist don't talk about, but I appreciate Jessie J doing so.

The next song, "Strip", is a song that is not what you would expect from the risqué title. "Strip" talks about baring ones true self.

The final 4 songs("Keep Us Together", "Get Away", "You Don't Really Know Me", and "Your Loss I'm Found") all talk about the struggles of relationships and love.

"Sweet Talker" overall has a smooth vibe just like most of Jessie J's music. A few of my favorites on this album include "Personal", "Masterpiece", "Fire", and of course "Sweet Talker".

Hopefully taking a little bit of appreciation for Jessie J, you can listen to "Sweet Talker" and become a Jessie J fan just like me!
