Reviews4 out of 5 - "...strkies an adroit balance between pop and experimental mixes....Every track is at once relentlessly slamming and melodically graceful...", 4 stars out of 5 - "...laid-back, jazzy, ambient hip-hop....His focused positivity, lightness of touch and deft improvisations are a welcome antidote to the heavy-handed self-aggrandising of many gangsta rappers...", 3.5 stars out of 5 - "...stew-pot hip-hop - traditional blunts, broads and braggadocio filtered through Tip's abstract lens....represents laid-back hip-hop 2 minutes into the future....it's gonna make you dance like you're on a bed of hot coals.", "...Tip brings much-needed wit and intelligence to the art of getting jiggy with it....club-ready booty cuts...are balanced out by classes in the traditional Tip science you've come to know and love...", "...you'd be hard pressed to find more creativity on a rap album, from scrambling-for-a-dictionary lyrical flow and jazzbo guitars to Princely studio tricks....confirms that he can still kick it..." - Rating: A-, "Dope rhymes and, particularly, dope beats from the Tip here....his lyrics retain their former classic blend of the laid-back and the diamond sharp...", Included in Q's "50 Best Albums of 2000"., Ranked #48 in Nme's "Top 50 Albums of the Year"., 4 stars out of 5 - "...a gold-standard hip hop album that makes a perfect match between Q-Tip's rap skills and The Ummah's super-sharp production....It shows Q-Tip on form and roaring into the future..."
