Critic Reviews
Show All-
Rolling Stone
CeeLo gets his goofy groove on again, but the magic is gone
-
The Guardian
While Heart Blanche occasionally reminds us of Green’s quirky songwriting nous, it ends up a confusing jumble of styles and mixed messages.
-
SPIN
Heart Blanche makes a persuasive play for continued chart relevance.
-
Slant Magazine
The intro to Heart Blanche establishes the album’s general template, with Green squawking and vamping over a soaring gospel background befitting the late-career ministrations of a geriatric soul diva.
-
Hip Hop DX
Heart Blanche is CeeLo trying to shove a mosaic into a coloring book, with songs being noticeable by how normal they are.
-
All Music
Heart Blanche is upbeat and colorful. It's also more nostalgic than any Green album that preceded it, stuffed with allusions and direct references to the past.
-
Independent
CeeLo Green has never made a bad album, and isn’t about to change his ways with Heart Blanche, which overflows with positive energy.
-
AltMusicBox
Fans of his 2010 album, ‘The Lady Killer’ will be disappointed to see that the standard of his spaced-out soulful groove and slick eclecticism unfortunately doesn’t live up to the same high standard.
-
Pop Matters
A decent album of pop-soul is dragged down by its three worst tracks, which also happen to be the record's biggest and boldest.
-
NZ Herald
All up, there's enough trademark CeeLo Green magic to make this a worthwhile listen.
-
Renowned for Sound
Heart Blanche would be perfect to play on a sunny day or for a party/gathering; it’s definitely a welcoming and easy-going record.
-
The Ithacan
Soulful tracks lack heart
-
Las Vegas Weekly
Ceelo's pop heart doesn't beat as loudly on 'Heart Blanche'
-
South China Morning Post
The soulful seduction throughout these 15 tracks is tempered with a feel-good vibe, but it lacks the wacky playfulness of Green’s previous albums.
-
HiFi Magazine
Honestly Heart Blanche should have stayed in the can.
-
PearShaped Magazine
If you are after something slightly different and eccentric while still very chilled and easy to listen to, this is your best bet.
-
We Plug Good Music
Heart Blanche took a very mainstream route, and it felt a bit lost as to one particular style it was going for, each song seemingly separate from the next.
