8 out of 10 - "...[Kieta's] finest solo record....PAPA skews [his] Islamic declamation toward both the metallic drive of Living Colour and the harmolodic vagaries of [Vernon] Reid's...Ronald Shannon Jackson's Decoding Society....[knowing] the difference between embellishing and bedizening..."Q - 8/99, p.107
3 stars (out of 5) - "...the voice is as fantastic as ever...lovely melodies..."The Wire - 7/99, pp.55-6
