NEW YORK—With critics hailing its sound as “reminiscent of a young Norah Jones,” Norah Jones’ third album, Not Too Late, features the singer-songwriter performing mellow, acoustic pop songs with soul and country-pop tones.
“This third album is a great first effort,” said Billboard columnist Emmanuel Stevens, adding that he looks forward to watching someone with such raw potential mature as an artist. “Hopefully, she won’t suffer from a sophomore slump seven albums from now.”
In the weeks since this year’s Grammy Awards show, many fans have expressed outrage in online forums that Jones was “snubbed yet again” in the Best New Artist award, which she hasn’t won since 2003.
