Critic Reviews

• The prismatic, outstanding new album from the Brooklyn singer-songwriter moves gracefully through jazz, R&B, soul, and reggae. It’s a searching and specific exploration of connection, pain, and desire.

  Rating: 86/100

• A little more focus could deliver a masterpiece, but this wilful mess is haunting, charming and highly recommended.

• The third full-length project from Yaya Bey is an exceptional feat of storytelling, as much for the ground it covers as for the depths it shows to be lacking in commercial musical discourse.

  Rating: 80/100
  Loud and Quiet

• The Washington DC artist traverses a variety of genres on an album that tells funny, starkly wise stories of a half-together life.
