UrbQuasimoto is Madlib at his most creative and compelling. [May 2005, p.83]
-
What's beyond doubt is the magical blend of the surreal and the fantastical that made 'The Unseen' so memorable is once again in the fullest effect on this showcase of fearlessly skewed production, dense organic vibes and hemp & helium-fuelled raps that make up this smoked-out saunter through the back streets of the cosmo-according-to-Lord Quas.
-
If Madlib were somehow to commandeer a time machine, kidnap Sly & The Family Stone, Prince Paul, The Firesign Theater, Melvin Van Peebles, Redd Foxx, Negativland, and The Last Poets, lock them in a studio together on Haight Ashbury during the Summer Of Love with Hunter S. Thompson's drug supply, then force them to record an album together, the result might sound a little like The Further Adventures of Lord Quas.
-
Further Adventures of Lord Quas is a record that can satisfy the cult fan just as it will sate anyone who has an open mind to music that creates its own barriers.
-
Heavy, like delirious laughter looped ad infinitum, Lord Quas quivers with psychedelic rhythm.

Q MagazineSeventy minutes of mind-bending, head-spinning hip hop is a lot to take in one sitting, but this is nevertheless hugely inventive stuff if taken in smaller doses. [Jun 2005, p.116]

New Musical Express (NME)About as funny as pouring weedkiller on your genitals and then setting fire to them. [7 May 2005, p.66]

JeffLJun 15, 2006I expected a weaker safer album following the unseen, but instead found a bolder more risky album that's simply fantastic.
