      is
      very
      well
      done.
     
     
      Showcasing
      Edwin’s
      vocal
      range,
      from
      his

      of
      the
      final
     
     
      track
      “Another
      Drink”
      to

      it’s
      tough
      to
      pick
      out
      a
      bad
      track.
      Sure,
      “Trippin”
      can
      be
     
     
      annoying
      when
      played
      over
      and
      over,
      but
      that’s
      to
      be
      expected.
