"Her powerful voice sounded a little relentless on her first, much-praised international release, Tzenni, but this a more varied affair in which exuberant, full-tilt songs are matched against the lighter, traditional Suedi Koum, or the melodic Richa, written by her father and now dressed up with powerful guitar work".

"En overvældende stemme, der brænder sig gennem kulturelle barrierer med sin klart dirrende flamme. Og bandet, der understøtter og forsirer: Ægtemanden Jeiche Ould Chighalys maurisk modificerede elguitar, der fileterer lydbilledet med sine phasede, wahwah'ede kvarttonemelodier; Ousmane Tourés blødt dolkende bas; og trommeslager Matthew Tinaris smukt enkle rytmiske rygrad ... Det er en vellykket produktion: levende med et transparent lydbillede, et diskret muskuløst drive. Og en hallucinerende kvalitet i sangene, der både hylder Muhammed, drømmer om at følge uopdaget efter en girafflok og giver praktiske råd til kvinder om livmoderhalskræft ... Hele herligheden realiseret i et umiskendeligt kropssprog, som det virker naturstridigt at sidde stille til".

"A groovy, upbeat kind of desert blues, with undeniably catchy electric guitar riffs and melodies that make you want to sing along, if only you knew how. Noura's vocal abilities are certainly something; they traverse a huge range, are generously decorated with ornamentations, and are carried out with a sense of strength and determination. Imagine a cross between north-African Arabic and traditional Bulgarian singing, and you woud be getting close".
