    He wastes half his solo debut dishing out second rate filler. Thankfully, his true colours shine through on I Still Wanna, Raid and Trouble On My Mind ... although they're frustrating glimpses of a potent artist coasting too readily on past glories. [Jan 2012, p.99]

    The gloomy beats prove best suited to Pusha's own sinister drawl. [Feb 2012, p.104]

    Even though the Neptunes have long gone off the boil, their contributions are so much better than those of the other assembled "star" producers. [Jan 2012, p.96]

    Most of Fear of God feels like detached, competent, common-denominator, major-label hip-hop, which would be fine if we weren't already aware what he's capable of.

    Pusha is too reserved to pull off the revamped sound--he's more Raekwon than Rick Ross, better suited to quick-tongued storytelling than to bombast.

    Let Us Pray offers a familiar Scarface tableau, but Pusha and cast (including a demonic Tyler, the Creator on "Trouble on My Mind") paint his fantasies with requisite fervor.

    While Pusha is not touching on any new ground in terms of Rap music as a whole, this album still contains great beats and introspective lyricsWhile Pusha is not touching on any new ground in terms of Rap music as a whole, this album still contains great beats and introspective lyrics that question Pusha's own role in the rap game.
