"As with Frank Ocean's recent Channel Orange, the follow-up nods to Stevie Wonder and especially Prince, whose heavenly Purple Rain harmonies are particularly referenced for the hymnal Talking to You. However, Krell's music is starker, as he brings a deeply personal sadness to tracks of ethereal beauty".

"How To Dress Well fremstår som en del af en tidsbølge, hvor hver kunster har sin specifikke fortolkning af r&b'en, og Tom Krell formår at integrere den med en friskhed, der bliver legitimeret ved den hårdnakkede insisterende patos, der absolut er at spore på Tom Krells to'er. Dog uden at lytteren bliver kvalt, for optimismen lurer som et grufuldt bæst under overfladen".
