CHRISTGAU CONSUMER GUIDE

Three albums into this world-class popmeister’s American career, his U.S. debut begins to seem like the compromise purists claimed it was—not because it’s too American, but because it’s not American enough. Now when I want something subtly polypercussive I’ll choose Nigerian LPs like The Message or Bobby rather than Juju Music.
