"Done Come Too Far is her third consecutive release to be recorded in Nashville with producer/guitarist Will Kimbrough. Each set reflects on her experiences as a Black woman, mother, wife, artist, and American citizen. Copeland doesn't consider herself to be political, but subjectively journalistic about what's happening in her country. 2018's America's Child wove blues and Americana in celebrating the contradictory nature of her country's people, along with poignant asides about racism and economic inequality. 2020's Uncivil War doubled down, using urban blues and hard rock to reflect on our obsession with firearms, conspiracy theories, and ideological conflicts. Done Come Too Far seizes the musical reins from those records, combines them with powerful contemporary blues, R&B, and Americana, with lyrics from the depths of individual and collective experience ... [It] cements the achievement of her previous two outings with steely determination, courage, and commanding, almost limitless musicality".

"Done Come Too Far is a work focused on the experiences of Copeland as she navigates modern-day America as a black woman and as a mother. Her profound social conscience is translated into courageous lyrics that dwell on race relations, violence, and social struggles. And as a vehicle for these timely observations, comes intense music. The songs on Done Come Too Far rank among some of the best Copeland has ever recorded, and are elevated by the album's masterful production".

"Another winner from the powerful voiced blues mama. With guest spots from Hi Records' organist Charles Hadges and Mississippi Hill Country legend Cedric Burnside, it captures her full range: rockin' out on "Too Far To Be Gone" and refined yet passionate on "Gullah Geechee"".
