Reviews3 out of 5 - "...all over the place....most of JUXTAPOSE sounds like intuitive variations on the sonic organism he created., 7 out of 10 - "...shows in sonic sonic choices unheard-of for this mansion haunter....Pretty groovy for what feels more like basement tapes than a proper LP...", 4 stars (out of 5) - "...this new album is the spliff-addled gutter-poet's finest moment to date. A shattered hip-hop dream. Bleakly comic, furiously romantic...", 3 stars (out of 5) - "...brings back some long-missed hooks and melodies to Tricky's bad-mood music....his least hip-hop, most-pop album to date....Muggs and Grease's light sets Tricky's shadow in welcome relief.", "...Tricky bobs and weaves his way through his most unpredictable, fulfilling album since 1995's MAXINQUAYE....JUXTAPOSE restores his credentials as a unique alchemist...", "...JUXTAPOSE tries to wipe the smirk off the faces of HipHop playaz who are laughing all the way to the bank....his willingness to confront HipHop's ugliness is laudable....As ever, the kernels of an amazing fusion and a singular vision are audible...", "...his poppiest effort yet....proves why his music has really been hip hop all along....JUXTAPOSE still manages to confound expectations....he throws us a change-up: fresh beats, freestyle breaks, and a playful reluctance to be so damn heavy all the time.", 7 out of 10 - "...the churning murk has been replaced by some semblance of clarity, structure and melody....He's the Mark E Smith of washed-out industrial trip-hop, spewing garbled but sporadically brilliant verbage....There's plenty to enjoy here.", 5 stars out of 5 - "...An entirely uncomfortable listen, for sure. All the same, precisely the record we've all been willing Tricky to make for years.", "...Slighter than Usual, but by Current Rap Standards, Refreshing Enough."-Rating: B, 4 stars (out of 5) - "...JUXTAPOSE proves that this particular artistic fire remains stoked and that...he's gamely heading off into the territory of the individualist."
