Mary Lambert's Heart On My Sleeve Album Review

It's not often that an authentic artist comes along. She really focuses on her music and her lyrics in all of her songs. She does a great job on reflecting her life through her songs. It's no wonder she's collaborated with so many artists such as Mackelmore & Ryan Lewis. Her best song is also #1 right now on the charts: Secrets.


In an interview about her song Secrets she says “I felt like there were a lot of songs coming out about self-empowerment and challenging beauty standards, and I wanted to write a song along those same lines, but in my voice,” she explains. “It's easy to paint a pretty picture and tell everyone to love themselves, but it's way more complicated than that. There is so much shame and guilt in our society, and I think it has deprived a lot of people from living fully. We're all facing battles. We've all had someone who has hurt us, so let's talk about it. I believe vulnerability is what will save the world. I wanted to point the lens at myself in hopes of inspiring others to do the same. This song is my dirty laundry, and that's actually really freeing. Now I can walk around with accidental pieces of bagel in my bra and eat it anyway.” 

This album is a must buy! I loved each and every song on it. You can pick it up on iTunes here and Amazon here.
