"Yet another album that shows the long shadow that the late Ali Farka Touré continues to cast over Malaian music. Hama comes from the same small town, Niafunké, as Ali Farka and worked with him extensively, playing his distinctive tapping percussion on a hollowed calabash and contributing backing vocals to a wide range of recordings ... Hama has written all the songs on this, only his second album ... He has a pleasing, sure voice and his singing is sometimes interspersed with spoken passages by Afel Bocoum. Hama surrounds himself with a number of up-and-coming musicians on this album, which meets with varied success. The electric guitar of Oumar Konate is given great prominence, though his long solos with extensive use of wah-wah, sustain and other effects seem to be at odds with the other contributors. His voice seems to interact much better with the tracks where it is set against the n'goni of Kande Sissoko"
