Critical reception
Amanda Jones of The Ramapo News describes the work as "a moody 15-track anthology that dives into sex, love and consequences" going on to say that "Each song has a different element and vibe, but are all tied together with 2016-techno feeling beats and a sultry pop tone".
Josh Sharpe of BroadwayWorld indicates that "The 15-track collection boasts a darkened, dance-powered sound that Barrett has perfected in her journey to empower and uplift her listeners".
Touring
The singer plans a 2025 tour with Sombr and Ari Abdul.
