FAMM Vinyl & CDs

Review: The second full-length solo record by British songstress Jorja Smith. Falling Or Flying was released in 2023, and heard a continued unpacking of the yearning, jazz-soul-r&b-house combo she'd laid down on prior releases like Be Right Back and Lost & Found. Smith herself stated that the lyrical content "touch[es] on breakups, relationships with my friends, relationships with old friends, relationships with myself," and marking a recent step into womanhood, "more sure of herself than ever before". This reimagined edition of the album, released a year later, hears several more live interpretations of the OG record's best songs, including 'Greatest Gift', 'Little Things' and 'Feelings'.
