“The Queens native brings a directness and precision to his latest album, an unassuming notebook of observations from a mature rapper with nothing left to prove.” - Pitchfork

“One of the more respected emcees on the indie circuit, Homeboy Sandman isn’t one for too many bells and whistles and puts a premium on simply making the best Hip-Hop songs and albums he possibly can while remaining true to his core. With his latest effort, There in Spirit, it’s clear that the assignment was understood, as Sandman astounds throughout the project’s seven tracks” - VIBE

“Witty, unpretentious lyrics concerned with progression and self-understanding make There in Spirit an affable, commanding mini-album that continues Homeboy Sandman’s low-key ascent to underground royalty.” - PopMatters
