And then life was beautiful

"After rediscovering her creative spark, Nao turns her organic-sounding third album into a kaleidoscopic testament to the pains and pleasures of modern love and the healing process they inspire".

"At the start of her career, Nao played around with electronic synths, before moving to the more commercial pop-R&B of 'Saturn'. With this album, there's a deeper appreciation for the genre. 'And Then Life Was Beautiful' truly is a true celebration of R&B, yet - despite its nostalgic nods - Nao has still created a record that doesn't sound like anyone else. If you need to do a little soul-searching yourself, this soulful record is a good place to start".

"Plenty of new albums are considering life with Covid, but few of them are as sensual and gorgeous as this ... It would take a pretty flinty character not to come away feeling buoyed, which is an extremely worthwhile effect for an album to have at this juncture in history".
