Industry Reviews 4 discs out of 5 - ...The sound of a 21-year-old guitar prodigy...getting really deep into his own groove-obsessed head. A bona fide buried treasure. Vibe (04/01/2001)
9 out of 10 - ...We're (quite) taken through clear-eyed soul, blues, funk, and pop, then dropped home with our astonished smiles... Spin (02/01/2001)
4 stars out of 5 - ...A smooth, trippy soul-funk opus....revealing an expansive creativity that appeared unlimited... Rolling Stone (03/15/2001)
...Like Stevie Wonder, the self-reliant, sweet-voiced, then-17-year-old is on every track, stirring up soul, jazzy chords, psychedelia, and studio ingenuity into a tasty, weird mix... - Rating: A- Entertainment Weekly (05/04/2001)
4 stars out of 5 - ...Half the album is marvelously psychedelic soul....Factor in jazzy bubblebath ambience, primitive electronica and opulent funk, and this is a bona fide lost classic. Q (05/01/2001)
Ranked #13 in Wire's 50 Records of the Year 2001. The Wire (01/01/2002)
4 stars out of 5 - That this incredible recording sound so utterly 'now' is testament to the visionary genius whose synth silkiness and sophist-funk orchestrations tripped the minds of everyone from Prince to DJ Shadow.
