"A 10-piece band, recorded in Al Green's old Memphis studio, contributes swing and brass to candidly autobiographical tales such as Everybody's Brother and the urgent, restless Don't Wanna Go the Other Way. Chesnutt pours scorn on "market-based strategies" on Chips Down (In No Landfill)".

"Echoes of Curtis Mayfield, Marvin Gaye and Al Green are intertwined to carry conscious-soul material depicting Cody's passage from crack addiction to Sunday school teacher, his soaring tenor multi-tracked over symphonic strings, clipped funk guitar, subtle horn textures and darker organ shadings".
