    Grandiose in its bite, depth and soul, Champion lives up to its name.

    Favoring authenticity and catharsis, Champion is simple and straightforward, forgoing fancy concepts and cluttered production in favor of a classic set of emotive, broken-hearted breakup anthems.

    CHAMPION, taken as a whole, functions more successfully as painfully honest introspection, 10 tracks worth of the singer working through an endless parade of complex and conflicting emotions. There’s a bit of an identity crisis at play here, and that crisis knocks the record down a few pegs. But Briggs’ struggles through her anguish and isolation were clearly worth the effort, and CHAMPION is worth a listen.

The magnificent Briggs just came lyrically agressive to conquer and inspire us to do the same. CHAMPION isn't for everyone, it's for those who's struggling and surviving, without lose your sweetness and joy of life. Fierce is the word as possible as to describe the album vibes. Expand
