    Call it urban ethereal, grounded in gritty raps and coiled funk rhythms, bolstered by jazz keyboards, soaring vocals, and synthesizers.
  2. Uncut

    Long on rhetoric, short on melodic structure, it's hard going. [Dec 2002, p.150]
  3. Powerful, beautiful, sensual and activist, this is the record Prince keeps trying to make.
