"The production is definitely the strong point of the album, reminds of his earlier work but still far from conventional hip-hop.

"I think the last couple of songs could have been better - but overall the first side was very solid the energy was kept up through most of side two. One of her best albums." Reply

"This album is literally perfect. The album has a very nice California vibe that is carried throughout its entirety and Dark Blue is among my favorite songs in existence. This is a true piano rock album and it is incredibly well done. Perfectly done." Reply
