"The album's last six songs are particularly heavy, as if Ambrosius recorded the first nine, felt she needed one more to finish it off, wrote and recorded half a dozen for consideration, and chose to keep the lot since they're all purposeful and of approximately equal quality. Yearning hooks over winding grooves remain Ambrosius' sure-fire combination, delivered most potently early on in "Flood," the closest the album gets to "Far Away," and "I Got It Bad," rhythmically an immediate descendant of D'Angelo's "Spanish Joint."".
