Franti and Spearhead almost made a deliberate attempt to stray from the typical hip-hop beats and go for something a bit more organic and acoustic than their previous efforts -- and the experiments more than pay off.
-
Everyone Deserves Music excels beyond simple good intentions because Franti and Spearhead are also at peace with their musical influences.
-
MojoMusically and vocally, this is Franti's most confident and varied work to date. [Jul 2003, p.106]
-
A joyous celebration of life that pulverizes bullets with positive vibes.

BlenderThe pie-in-the-sky ambitions may be a little much, but credit Franti for dreaming up a kinder, gentler new world order. [Sep 2003, p.122]
