When Sophie first dropped the one-two punch of Bipp / Elle last year it scared the shit out of me. Mutant bass and distorted vocal clips that shook the listener’s senses and spat them out a lesser person – all in the best way possible. Lemonade harnesses the same ideas but fails to hit the spot, falling deeper into trap/bass-heavy R&B territory and proving ultimately forgettable.
