May 9, 2025As enveloping as the record’s sound is though, let it be made plain, both through the power of Uchis’ vocalizing, the personal touch of her storytelling, and the complete absence of guests across each track, that this is her album, and hers alone; if not for that autonomy, it simply wouldn’t be sincere.
-
May 27, 2025Sincerely is best experienced from front to back. After the first seven songs lightly splash and bob while Uchis sings of gratitude, devotion, and self-doubt, song eight, "Fall Apart," delivers a knockout blow of heavy psychedelic soul.
-
May 9, 2025With songbird trills, languid organs that bleed major key into minor, and gauzy production, this music is a fitting frame to illustrate the kind of domestic peace that Uchis has sought for a long time, even as she sings about feelings that should be too big for these kind of sweet melodies to hold.
-
May 9, 2025Sincerely is the artist’s show alone. And rather than feeling monotonous, the album’s measured tempos and heavy reverb establish a singular, potent mood: These are torch songs about transforming heartbreak into contentment. By album’s end, its case for the comforts of love is undeniable.
-
May 9, 2025An album is soulful consistency, ‘Sincerely,’ luxuriates in diamond-tinted sound.
-
May 9, 2025‘Sincerely,’ sometimes meanders – six woozy minutes of ‘Lose My Cool’ is too much – but more often, it matches the dreamy intimacy of Uchis’ stunning 2020 smash ‘Telepatía’. Here, her music shimmers with confidence even when her lyrics hint at deep-rooted insecurities.
-
May 16, 2025Sincerely plays better as a whole rather than as tracks excerpted for a playlist, which is fine, though “Sugar! Honey! Love!” and “Daggers!” rank among Uchis’ most lived-in tracks.
