Jun 16, 2017At 16 tracks and a whopping 110-minute runtime, there are some songs that blend into the other, but it's a testament to Goldie's creativity and flexibility as an artist that there's never a single moment on The Journey Man that sounds compromised.
-
Jun 19, 2017The record is a fluid blend of Goldie taking reflective looks back on where he’s come from and the myriad influences that have shaped him over the years, alongside a sonic perfectionist’s competitive desire to push the music world forward with his new work.
-
Jul 18, 2017The double album structure adds texture to the record’s length, avoiding monotony. Goldie clearly still owns his sound and endows it with a unique vision on The Journey Man.
-
Jun 15, 2017There's still a fair amount of skippable tracks here. Despite this, Goldie remains a hero and an inspirational figure, and even if The Journey Man doesn't quite stack up to Timeless, it's still a respectable effort, and its best moments confirm the man's legendary status.
-
Jun 14, 2017What The Journey Man most clearly captures is that taste for excess and self-indulgence. It's the work of an elder statesman who still has a special touch, but who doesn't know when to stop himself.

Q MagazineJun 7, 2017It's pulled down by too many mid-paced ballads and inordinate length. [Aug 2017, p.104]
-
Jun 15, 2017Goldie’s weakness is not always being able to corral that ambition, and, not helped by rote production, there is some interminable material here.
