Album Review

Syd - Broken Hearts Club

Item: Syd - Broken Hearts Club
Rating: 4

It’s vulnerable, it’s heartfelt, and above all it feels real.

Reviewer: Adam England

Released: 8th April 2022

Label: Columbia

Of all the artists to emerge from the Odd Future collective, Syd is easily among the most fascinating. First joining the likes of Tyler, the Creator and Matt Martians as a teen under the moniker Syd tha Kid, she went on to form The Internet with Matt in 2011, and released her debut solo album, ‘Fin’, in 2017. And now, five years later, comes ‘Broken Hearts Club’.
