    The entire album plays like a club-ready mixtape, combining variations on the genre into one cohesive 40-minute set. .... Melanie C was a manifestation of liberation, Sweat imparts proof that it worked. .... For the first time in her solo career, there is a triumphant lightness to her self-interrogation.

    Decades into Melanie C's storied career, Sweat is one of her best.

    On the whole, you’re getting looped, repetitious hooks that are accommodating the style of music being run with. Overall though, Melanie continues to deliver new music to a great standard, which, given how long she’s been in the game, is testament to her talents.

    There are flashes of those ’90s rave glory days, but at its core this is a record built for a very different kind of dancefloor. More than anything, it’s a celebration of resilience, and the sound of Mel C continuing to carve out her own identity.
