Grade: C
Jessie J packs attitude into her debut “Who You Are.” Sprinkled with the flair of P!nk and Joss Stone, the lyrics empower listeners to find their self-worth from within, with songs like “Price Tag” and “Who’s Laughing Now.” Standout tracks include “Do It Like a Dude,” where J talks about relationships from a male perspective, and “Abracadabra,” an ode to J’s lover. While there are some great songs on the album, it is weighed down by filler. Here’s hoping J’s next album will have more appeal and less fluff.
