Moments Worth Listening For
The explosive, brassy opening of the title track that immediately sets a tone of defiant femininity.
The locked-in bass groove on 'He’s Just a Runaway' that proves the group could maintain their funk edge without Nile Rodgers.
The lush, stacked vocal harmonies in the chorus of 'Next Time You’ll Know' showcasing their biological vocal blend.
