    "Lady Sov's street cred, raw talent, and gumption can't mask Public Warning's faults--like overly frenetic beats and a handful of choruses that rely on tuneless yelling instead of a good refrain."Entertainment WeeklyEntertainment Weekly: Public Warning Review

    "Even if Sov doesn't cross over the way she or Def Jam might want her to, she still sounds like an original--even for people who know half the songs already."—The OnionThe Onion: Public Warning Review
