    The album floats on shuffling rhythms, wah-wah guitars and catchy hooks, stopping at stations from socially conscious storytelling to fantasies involving space aliens.

    The record's best moments are slow-mo funk cuts like "Laughter" and "Praise" where Jones' silky falsetto finds a sweet spot east of Prince and Earth Wind & Fire. [Mar 2014, p.78]

    The opening futurefunk salvo gives way to some soulful ballads. [Mar 2014, p.96]

    High on ambition, musicianship and charm the end result is a set of well-meaning if often uninspiring afro-rock.

    Even the rhythmic energy can't disguise a shortage of quality songs. [Mar 2014, p.114]
