Review

Rolling Stone (p.78) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "Call it Sade unlite: jazzy atmospherics meant to evoke spiritual fundamentals rather than zoned-out surfaces."
Spin (p.122) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "Ndegeocello incorporates melodic post-punk a la TV on the Radio and channels Funkadelic's acidic guitar on her seventh album."
Entertainment Weekly (p.106) - "[T]he mellifluous-voiced bassist coasts from punk rock to orchestral ballads to seductive grooves." -- Grade: A
Vibe (p.98) - "Her eighth album transcends her poetic neo-soul rebellion; WORLD examines God, government, the devil, and in the end, love."
No Depression (p.103) - "Ndegeocello covers a great deal of ground, turning on a dime from jazzy atmospherics to reggae dub to club beats to punk snarl."

Title Note

Eclectic singer-songwriter and bassist Me'Shell Ndegeocello has made a virtue out of being uncategorizable over the course of her lengthy career. THE WORLD HAS MADE ME THE MAN OF MY DREAMS finds Ndegeocello largely supplanting the funk-inflected singer-songwriter pop of early albums with a thornier brew of political lyrics, hard-edged modern jazz, and confessional vocals. With guests the likes of guitarist Pat Metheny and pianist Robert Glasper, Ndegeocello has serious jazz credibility this time out, and songs such as "Virgo" and the scorching opener "Haditha" come closer to fusing modern jazz with singer-songwriter pop than anything since Joni Mitchell's controversial late-1970s album, MINGUS. Meanwhile, the funky "Headline" and the tender ballad "Shirk" should appeal to earlier fans as well.
