Fans of the first two albums might find it difficult to adjust, but Digi Snacks brings that "through the looking glass" feeling and offers a murky world unto itself, one where Wu-Tang Batmans and blaxploitation anime seem entirely possible.
-
It's the beats and production that really define an RZA release, and they're as intoxicating as ever on Digi Snacks.
-
Experimentation and metamorphosis--of sound and of character--are the paragons of this alter ego, and RZA seems to be swimming in both these days. All the pieces fit, and when RZA goes Voltron, he’s at the top of his game.

FilterDigi Snacks shouldn't be considered or approached as a complete meal, but it should tide you over till the next full serving of Wu. [Summer 2008, p.94]
-
It's an album likely to confound and alienate, but its nooks are home to a rugged kookiness that no one but RZA could pull off.
-
MojoDigi Snacks is pleasingly lean on fillers , and finds RZA again at his peak as a producer, effortlessly balancing the slow burn bangers wirh tracks of soulful uplit. [Sep 2008, p.110]
-
Creatively cast, bonkers as ever--it’s a bright spot in the Bobby Digital series.
-
For all the extracurricular drama, it's pretty good.
-
Getting a sequel to the first two volumes was an unexpected and pleasant surprise, but outside of his hardcore fan base of Wu-Tang Clan fans there's not much chance of this album succeeding.
-
He finds a happy balance between dark and upbeat and keeps the complexities of his soundscapes relatively toned down without any apparent sacrifice in quality; the result is the most accessible RZA solo album yet.
