Reception

Erin Lowers of Exclaim! rated Wash & Set an eight of 10 for Leikeli47 evincing an "ear for production and keen sense of melody power".[1] A review for Vibe by Darryl Robertson calls this set "dynamic, and featureless, effort is loaded with creativity, vigor and the power of her own feminism".[2] Critics reviewing Leikeli47's 2022 release Shape Up noted the potential in these songs, such as Anthony Fantano[3] and Heather Phares of AllMusic Guide, with Heather Phares writing for the latter that this album has strong hooks and clever production.[4] An Uproxx interview with the artist characterized this music as "unique and eclectic, and 100% Leikeli, and there’s nothing else like out today".[5]
