Review

These are trying times. As we brace for what comes next, Crys Matthews drops her earnest, masterful, and irrefutably vital album, Reclamation. Stitched with intricate details about civil unrest, blasphemous religious beliefs, and racism, the artist’s latest record documents America at this moment in time. She bottles up what life is like in this country, open wounds and all, and urges the listener to question, challenge, and reassess.
