E•MO•TION (Deluxe)

Editors' Notes More pristine, radiant pop from Carly Rae Jepsen, but let’s be clear: this is not “Call Me Maybe II." E•MO•TION expands the musical and emotional palettes. Producers Ariel Rechtshaid and Dev Hynes dress “All That” in ‘80s slow jam finery, with shimmering keys and neon-lit effects. Rostam Batmanglij of Vampire Weekend gives “Warm Blood” a sinister edge and delicious depth. And Sia lends her manic intensity, co-writing “Making the Most of the Night.” Carly’s sparkling voice ties it all together, whether finding her lane (“LA Hallucinations”), getting stuck in the friend zone ("Your Type”), or expressing the joy of breaking out (“Gimmie Love”).
