  ## Background
  
  Prior to Songs in the Key of Gold, Leslie Hall created all of her music in GarageBand. Leslie Hall said in an interview that her music "always thought they lacked that oomph. I’m always trying to sound like the classics, like Britney and Rihanna, and they never had that." For the album's production, she enlisted Titus Jones, who she discovered after he mashed up one of her songs with Britney Spears and Rihanna's music.
  
  ## Critical reception
  
  Lisa Dip of Web Wombat gave the album a highly positive review, calling the album "gloriously shameless, endlessly catchy and highly original- the way pop music should be." She noted "Tight Pants/Body Rolls," "Shazam I'm Glamorous," "Shake Your Hips," and "#1 Cat in America" as highlights from the album. She additionally praised producer Titus Jones for adding "seamlessness and energy in the album." Laura Fontaine Haines of Bust Magazine praised the production, writing that the songs got either a "serious kick up (“Power Cuddle”)" or "just a fabulous makeover (“Blame The Booty”)."
