"'Schizophrenia' is an album title that suggests a split personality but on this exhilarating debut, Bobby Sparks II has shown that he is able to juggle multiple musical personalities. In the hands of a lesser musician, perhaps, such a diverse array of musical styles might have resulted in a confusing mess but such is Sparks' talent that he is able to weave together many different sonic strands in a masterful and wholly convincing way. A mightily impressive debut."
