CRITIC REVIEWS

AllMusic
Keeping track of whether Logic's writing from his own or someone else's vantage can be a challenge, but one doesn't need to be that familiar with his work to realize that this contains some of his most personal rhymes.

XXL

Complete with unbridled lyricism, top-notch production and conceptual brilliance to tie it all together, Everybody is a hallmark release that further solidifies Logic solid standing in hip-hop.

GIGsoup

‘Everybody’ is a great album and although it re-hashes the topic of race, it does make some very valid statements on the issue. It has great production throughout and interesting narrative devices – even if you haven’t listened to ‘The Incredible True Story’.

HipHopDX

Hip Hop’s gatekeepers will say that timing and the repetitive nature of Logic’s lyrics hurts Everybody but for Logic’s younger core fan base, especially those going through struggles of their own, his latest work will be the catharsis to keep them from plunging off the deep end.

Pitchfork

Logic’s Everybody is the latest in a string of recent rap releases that consider race and perception—Kendrick Lamar’s DAMN., J. Cole’s 4 Your Eyez Only, and Joey Bada$$’s All-Amerikkkan Bada$$ among them. But unlike those records, which are self-aware and mindful of their surroundings, this is nearly clueless and without subtlety.

A.V. Club

“Amiable” is sort of the operant word for Everybody, which, like Joey Badass’ All-Amerikkan Bada$$, strives to create a trenchant pop-rap polemic for the Trump era, but unlike that record—or any other record ever, for that matter—frequently gets lost in minutes-long spoken-word segues in which Neil DeGrasse Tyson speaks as a benevolent god about the nature of self-worth. That stuff is about as bad as a thing in our vast cosmos can be.

The Young Folks

There are some highlights on this project, but ultimately Logic is way too straightforward and brings minimal layers to each song.

35
The 405
In general, the album feels like a grab-bag of 'button issues', others' ideas, and content truly desperate to bear high-minded importance, but proves little more than Logic has clearly heard some Kendrick. More simply put, its tactic of sticking to simple broad-strokes – and constantly beating his listener over the head with them – reads like BuzzFeed: The Album.

Spectrum Culture

It’s an inoffensive, populist take on socially conscious hip hop, defanged and declawed for maximum mainstream penetration.

The concept of having an album represent everybody in the world; every race, religion, colour, creed and sexual orientation represented and given a point of view in this singular album is certainly an ambitious one, but unfortunately one that seems destined for failure. Logic's central message of peace, love and positivity is in full force on Everybody, with lyrics discussing systemic racism in America, his issues with growing up and being biracial... and another song about that... another one ... read more

This new Logic LP reminds me of my highschool essays - Rushed, confused, and lacking any central meaning.

This album is so gross. It's so repetitive, like bro I get it, we need to love each other. I found myself cringing at most of the lyrics on here.

I'm sorry if I like this, as usual, but I very well might
I'll talk about why I haven't posted anything in awhile at the end, if you're interested, but the rest of this is just gonna be a review of Everybody

Hallelujah is a pretty good instrumental hindered by the lack of a snare or any meaningful release of pressure

Everybody is really good, the only thing holding it back being a meaningless chorus but the beat and verses and production save it
