    An album that purports to be so much but really isn't on a whole. GoldLink knows where he has to go, but he's scared to go first. Maybe next time he can take the plunge.

    With a few sparks of genius shining through the cracks within its overbearing mediocrity, GoldLink's debut commercial project strikes a few notes on-key and simply disappoints on the rest.

I have been excited to see this guy drop a project since I found him on Soundcloud thanks to tracks like "Wassup", and though his unique voice and style are still very much present on "And After That, We Didn't Talk", they are somewhat muted, somewhat thrown into disarray and 100% unfocused. I expect his next project to blow this out of the water, because he has clearly demonstrated here that he has the makings of a great artist, he just hasn't figured out how to put all the great parts in the right places yet.… Expand

    Even with quick, dense and precisely rhythmic flows, his rapping is like verbal dancing. Its joyous and romantic moments make the album feel more like a thematic refinement than a musical one.

    GoldLink's debut album has something for every mood. Usually it takes an artist two or three albums before they reach maturity, however, with And After That, We Didn't Talk, GoldLink is well ahead of schedule.

    In the end, And After That We Didn’t Talk is as impressive of a rap debut as there has been in 2015. Once GoldLink’s reputation catches up with the quality of his music we may just have a new superstar on our hands.
