Review

I'm thrilled to dive into Halsey's sophomore album, "hopeless fountain kingdom"! This ingenious concept album is a thrilling ride, expertly weaving together tales of love, identity, and the delicate dance of self-preservation in relationships. In fact, it's heavily inspired by Shakespeare's iconic "Romeo and Juliet" - how cool is that?

Musically, "hopeless fountain kingdom" marks a bold new direction for Halsey, embracing a more pop-centric vibe with intriguing blends of synth-pop, electropop, and R&B. It's a sonic smorgasbord, courtesy of some talented collaborators like Lido, Benny Blanco, and Ricky Reed. And let's give it up for those chart-topping singles - "Now or Never" and "Bad at Love" are seriously catchy!

Halsey's lyrics are, as always, effortlessly honest and vulnerable, taking us on a journey of discovery and heartache. But what really sets "hopeless fountain kingdom" apart is its clever narrative structure, which adds a whole new layer of depth to the listening experience. All in all, this album heralds a major creative leap for Halsey, demonstrating her remarkable talent for crafting both infectious hits and genuine emotional resonance. - Milo
