    Without diminishing her legacy as the mainstream bounce ambassador to the world, this gospel turn ends up being the most meaningful and powerful album of her career to date.

    At its best, Pressing Onward amplifies that magic with powerful choral harmonies, carving out new space in contemporary gospel and shaping it in her own image.

    The tracks that really try to fuse the bounce/gospel genres are the most interesting offerings.

    The album is notable in the chances it takes, as Freedia tries on a variety of sounds like dance and techno, alongside the traditional elements of gospel and bounce beats.
