    No song on this album sounds the same, and that's a great thing. Native American, Indian, Middle eastern, folk, acid rock, and march music are all wrapped up in Gongasufi's completely unique voice, hazy noise, and hip hop beats. Recommended tracks are "Sheep", 'Duet", "Candylane", and "Made".

    A Sufi and a Killer never, ever repeats itself. Gonjasufi’s beautiful, instantaneously classic voice is the glue that holds it all together. It’s captivating.

    It's a facinating listen, one that feels like it could collapse at any time, but just about hangs together. [Apr 2010, p.90]

    There's no mistaking this advent of a genuine original, the woozy, whacked-out linguistic precision of A Sufi And A Killer resisiting all efforts at summary. [Apr 2010, p.105]
