criticism

The e-zine Laut.de rated Kickin 'and Screamin' with four out of a possible five points. From the point of view of the editor Dani Fromm, Kaliko has emancipated himself from his role as a back-up rapper of Tech N9ne and is “serving his broad spectrum, from singing to rap to infinity and much more, [...] again and again successfully Own cause. ”The guest contributions by other rappers are also praised, whereby even“ AutoTune King ”T-Pain“ hardly does any harm ”. Furthermore, the background music for most of the songs is positively emphasized. So distinguished Abu Dhabi about by an "oriental sound aesthetics", while a "shifted, misty, unreal distorted dream mood" in the plays Created A Monster and Dream Of A King reign. In contrast, Spaz sounds a "bit too typically dubious." Fromm also praises the "inner turmoil expressed in the texts, the self-tearing and the torments with which [Kaliko] has always had to struggle."
