re(CORD) is probably her most focused work in years. It flows quite well, and I still really enjoy it.

The biggest thing I appreciated was hearing strong and healthy vocals again. Both AND/DNA were recorded when she was coming off tours. This is probably the first album in awhile where her voice was rested and fully recovered.

I think Rich and Famous is indeed the key track on the album. STRIP remains a very pleasant surprise. Again is just lovely and nostalgic to listen to. I also still quite enjoy Eh Yo, Do Me, and Summer Time.

The videography for this album really fits the vibe I think she was going for. I wish Rich and Famous, Eh Yo and Do Me had gotten PVs but given the situation at avex, I'm not going to complain too much.
