Critical reception


Larry Flick from Billboard described the song as "a clever, harmonious call for unity over a string-laden ragga/swing groove that demands urban radio play and a sleaze-speed club remix."[1] Pan-European magazine Music & Media wrote, "Another hit out of the doctor's private practice is on its way. The "Africana" version will make alternative programmers blush admitting that a popular artist can be innovating as well, but not for Dutch alternative public outlet, VPRO's DJ Lux Janssen. "I play the song, although it might not be 'comme it faut' in our [left of center] surroundings. For me, however, Dr. Alban has the right amount of slickness."[2]
