    Take the jokes for what they are and discover that Felix's style-shifting is refreshing at album length. It may even make He Was Kings the finest full-length effort he's ever created.

    Felix Stallings Jr. bounces back by sampling, quoting, and paraphrasing other people's rubbery tunes, and showcasing them in similarly elastic settings.
  3. His 10th effort is his most focused since 2001's "Kittenz And Thee Glitz." [Oct 2009, p.111]
