Rating: 6/10
Favourite Tracks: It's Okay To Cry, Ponyboy, Faceshopping, Immaterial 
Least Favourite Track: Is It Cold In The Water?


On this review I will be reviewing the debut album from 'Sophie' which was released on the 15th June  2018. It's the debut album from 'Sophie' called "Oil Of Every Pearl's Un-Insides".

Sophie also known as 'Sophie Xeon' is a Scottish singer, songwriter, record producer and disc jockey from Los Angeles California. She is known for her synthesised take on pop music. She is known for her singles "Bipp", "Lemonade". She has produced for artists like Madonna, Charli XCX, Vince  Staples, Let's Eat Grandma, and Namie Amuro. In 2013 she released her debut single "Nothing More To Say"along with "Bipp", "Elle". In 2015 she released a compilation album "Product" which was a short compilation album of all of the tracks she recorded from 2013-2015. I feel like at that time that she should have already released her debut album. But the good thing is that she finally has this year with "Oil Of Every Pearl's Un-Insides". After hearing this album what did I think of it? At first I thought the album was weird with weird bubble gum pop production. I thought it was bit weird very unusual production. It sounded aggressive. But on the other hand I thought this album was okay I can understand that some fans praise this album due to it's creativity. Her vocals are interesting and weird on some tracks.

Moving on to my favourite tracks on the album starting with "It's Okay" I thought this track was okay. The production is not that bad I love her repetitive lyrics "It's Okay To Cry". "Ponyboy" this is an aggressive bubblegum pop track I love how she changes her voice on this track it really does go well. "Faceshopping" Another aggressive bubblegum pop track. The production is wicked. I like her lyrics. "Immaterial" which is this summer tropical electronic vibe it's decent. My least favourite track "Is It Cold In the Water" Not the strongest track on the album. Production is not the best but its a mediocre track.

Overall I thought this was a decent album. I would listen to it again. It's a 6/10 for me.
