Through and Through is the second full-length studio album by American rhythm and blues singer Baby Rose, released on April 28, 2023 [2] by Secretly Canadian. It has received positive reviews from critics.
Rose had previously released EPs and mixtapes as an independent artist before being signed to a subsidiary of Island Records for her debut full-length To Myself and was promptly dropped from the label. [3] Rose was deliberate about the process of recording her follow-up, moving across the United States and making songs that reflected her emotions and experience. [4] The songs form a narrative of a woman experiencing a break-up and subsequent relationships that lead the protagonist to recognize that she is in a cycle of unhealthy relationships. [5]

Editors at AllMusic rated this album 4 out of 5 stars, with critic Andy Kellman writing this work is "altogether more dreamlike and less inhibited than" To Myself . [3] In The Daily Telegraph , Kathleen Johnston summed up her five-star review "It’s the balance between raw emotion and the metaphorical that makes [Rose] so relatable. The album holds up a mirror to ourselves, with a collection of songs that feel instantly familiar, and yet also deliciously, exhilaratingly new". [8] At Loud and Quiet , this was named Album of the Week and critic Sophia McDonald rated it a 9 out of 10, calling it "incredibly lush [music that] pops with energy and swagger", which "drifts on dreamy guitar and rich vocals, luring you into a luscious sonic landscape" and that "spreads its tendrils and embraces you with lavish love". [7] Writing for Pitchfork , Emma Madden scored Through and Through a 7.6 out of 10, praising Rose's voice as similar to Nina Simone, as well as the album's "opulent production and heard-through-the-wall thump". [1]
Complex included this on their mid-year wrap-up of the best albums of the year [9] and chose this as the 26th best album of 2023, with critic Jessica McKinney stating it was "one of the most underrated albums on our mid-year list, but it’s a must-listen" for its "soulful and beautifully crafted body of work that is led by raw talent and sharp production", showing "Rose’s knack for vulnerable storytelling". [2] In a June round-up of the best R&B albums of the year, Uproxx featured this work, which critic Wongo Okon called "an elegant and enchanting showcase of [Rose's] undeniable talents". [10]
In Billboard , reviewers Cydney Lee and Neena Rouhani chose to spotlight two tracks from this album: the Smino duet “I Won’t Tell” showcased Rose as "playful and bold on the funky new track" that "usher[ed] in a new sonic era" for her [11] and “Water” was declared "the perfect accompaniment for summer downpours and early morning showers".
