To put Sigrid’s EP on a list of best albums kind of reminds me of the time Obama received Nobel Peace Prize after barely having practiced the role as the US president.

Not that Sigrid and Obama are anything similar per se, but Sigrid is an artist that has nowhere near showed her full potential yet.

Her single “Don’t Kill My Vibe” is the direct result of a songwriting session where she did not get the respect she deserved. She decided she might as well write them a response and make it in a song: “You think you’re so important to me, don’t you? But I want you to know that you don’t belong here”.

There is no doubt Sigrid has what it takes. Her music captures all the good elements of easygoing and catchy pop and her refreshingly stripped-down look and powerful live performances have proven that Sigrid is an exceptionally real deal.
