Rachel Keen has two very useful pop-star qualities: a gorgeous, versatile voice, and excellent taste in collaborators. This EP—released as the South Londoner buckles up for her final ascent to stardom—is a timely reminder of both skills. She sparkles across tracks that tap into UK garage (“Decline”), Latin pop (“Confidence”), and Afrobeats (“Slower”)—all of which come studded with inspired guest appearances.
