Yaeji What We Drew in the mirror review

Yaeji, What We Drew (XL)

REVIEW: Yaeji, What We Drew

A warm-hearted, satisfying culmination after a steady procession of bangers.

Yaeji, What We Drew (XL)

A self-starter who prefers to keep the creative process in house in the Grimes mold, Korean-Brooklynite Yaeji opts to venture out of her comfort zone on her debut full-length, What We Drew, dubbed a mixtape due to its uncharacteristically freeform, collaborative nature. It’s tough to hit the pure pop highs of previous hits “Raingurl” or “One More,” but the varied productions here are fluttering, refreshing and cosmopolitan. A warm-hearted, satisfying culmination after a steady procession of bangers. 7.5/10 Trial Track: “In the Mirror”
