Macy Gray Is Back and Better Than Ever" - Elias Leight, Vogue
"She's insanely underrated as a songwriter, a wordsmith whose wordplay is clever, often drolly dark, and full of both biting wit and irony-free vulnerability." - Crave
"Gray's patented purr-and-growl vocals thrive in the intimate setting and the well-chosen repertoire" - Pablo Gorondi, Associated Press
"Sounding beautiful in the surroundings, you can hear the clicks on the bass strings, and the brushes on the side drum as it shuffles and dances sedately onwards. Over the top is 'that' voice, which was always (at least on the evidence of this) destined to be comfortable and (probably more importantly) authentic within Jazz. It's so authentic, you can almost smell the tobacco stained late night club. Brilliant stuff." - Jim, Backseat Mafia
"Gray is unafraid to take chances, and that alone makes her one of the most excited songwriters of her time." - PureVolume
"The new Macy Gray album Stripped features great music, great artistry, and great sound quality. I've never heard Macy sound anywhere near this good." - Chris Connaker, Computer Audiophile
