"Three albums into COIN COIN, it's now clear that Roberts isn't just a storyteller, musician, ethnographer, historian, bandleader, arranger, improviser, or activist. She plays all of those roles, yes; collectively, they power one of the most provocative ongoing bodies of work by any American musician".

"River Run Thee ups the ante in Roberts' project. It is initially elliptical, but its self-determination, unflinching courage, and intense focus and openness create an indefinable but living, breathing art".

"Matana Roberts er i gang med at udfolde USA's smertefulde slavefortid og problematiske nutid over 12 sociologisk undersøgende, politisk indignerede og intersektionelt bevidste plader ... Det er frit fabulerende, dronende, freejazzede, støjende, ja, af og til næsten hallucinerende udforskninger af amerikansk underbevidsthed, kulturarv, social og politisk historie. Og det foregår med stærke kulturelle referencer".
