Critic Reviews
Show All-
Music OMH
Dynamite is a slickly produced return from Hatboy, and feels… just like it should, really, without inspiring love or hate.

All Music
Kay makes the most of his experimentation with some "vocal bass synthetics" on the hard funk title track.
-
The Independent
Recorded live in the studio, then nipped, tucked and toughened up by digital tweaking, Dynamite is as smooth and muscular as a Chippendale's chest, and about as slippery too, the strutting bass and slick rhythm guitar locking together on tracks like "Starchild" and "Electric Mistress".
-
PopMatters
Another 21st century rehash of classic soul, served with a side of disco kitsch.
-
The Guardian
Overlook the hazy underlying politicism - Starchild belatedly fulminates against TV evangelists - to enjoy a smooth, summery cocktail.

Exclaim!
The change that is present helps Dynamite to sound better than their last couple of records.

Wanabehuman
The album’s artwork may be dull, but the music is as scintillating and as welcome as ever.
-
Prince
'Dynamite' is a very,very good album.It's not nearly as powerful as the last album ('A Funk Odyssey'),but there are enough solid jams here to satisfy fans.
-
Paste Magazine
Kay keeps his mind on the mindless here, in the process crafting an efficient and insistent hunk of modestly effective dance-floor candy.

Split Magzine
What the album does do however is to successfully capture the sound that one has come to expect from Jamiroquai, and thus leave the listener comfortably satisfied if not terribly excited about the whole thing.
