Jake Bugg - On My One

Review by Dave Hanratty

On My One is so indebted to the efforts of others that you come to wonder if Bugg deliberately set out to construct the cheekiest concept record of recent times»

Jake Bugg releases his new album 'On My One'. The album was recorded in London, Los Angeles and Nottingham and was largely produced by Bugg himself, with Jacknife Lee working on three tracks. The album has the songs that will appease Bugg purists - the swaggering 'Put Out the Fire'. the finger-pickin' ballad 'All That' - but there's experimentation too. There are two hip hop tracks: 'Gimme the Love', a big beaty juggernaut of a song, and 'Ain't No Rhyme', in which he does some rapping. Elsewhere, a strain of lush, '70s-style pop runs throughout the record. In short, Jake Bugg has taken some creative risks.
