You Get It or You Don’t: A Journey with D’Lourdes’ Voice as Guide

D’Lourdes opens their debut album You Get It or You Don’t with “One of the Boys,” a folk track that immediately sets a warm, intimate tone. Their rich, resonant voice draws the listener in, and the cinematic swell of strings at the end gives the song a unique structure, elevating it beyond simple storytelling.

From there, the album glides through eleven tracks where rock subtly bleeds in, and flashes of R’n’B bring unexpected texture. Throughout, D’Lourdes’ vocals remain the emotional anchor—both powerful and comforting. Their range, both vocally and emotionally, allows each song to stand on its own while still feeling part of a cohesive journey.

What makes this album so compelling is its variety: moody guitar riffs, stripped-back acoustic moments, and lush production contrasts that never feel disjointed. Each track unfolds like a chapter, with D’Lourdes’ voice threading them together. The closing ballad gently lets the listener go, offering peace and reflection.

D’Lourdes brings a fluidity and emotional depth to You Get It or You Don’t that feels fresh and unfiltered. This is an album that asks to be felt.
