"Things Change is The Square Egg's third and best album -- in fact, the crew's third album in the stretch of a single year -- a more stridently social and political effort with a wildly adventurous sound!
The Square Egg is just about the most individualistic projects you'll find in the Nusoul underground -- featuring spoken, rhymed, and word jazz vocals by Lee -- with laid back support by a revolving cast on beat programming, Fender Rhodes, soul jazz guitar, bass and drums, horns, and occasional cuts and scratches. It's a tough sound to pin down, with the spoken word interludes, jazzy vocal numbers and righteous rhymes -- but one that's cleverly steeped in disparate influences that still manage to sit well together.
So many ambitious underground artists try to meld influences from De La Soul to Herbie Hancock, from the Last Poets to the Black Rock Coalition, together in the same stylistic frappe and fail miserably. The Square Egg pulls it off, and richly deserve a little bit of attention for the effort!" - Dusty Groove America (April 2005)

Enjoyed Listening Without Skipping Through
author: Yolanda
This CD is not only worth what you pay, but much more. The music speaks to how humans are ... complex. It is a mixture of spoken word, soul, rhythm, rock ... you will not only experience it all, but it actually works. It speaks on waking up, on taking action, on changing, on love, on perservering. I urge all to support this group for this truly is music.

Sweet Soul Music...
author: Manu C
Another incredible album by The Square Egg, the third I've bought by these incredibly talented artists in about three months. This time around, Lee & Co. are on a smoother, more sensual vibe. "Feelin'" is a slow jam for one's body, mind and spirit--the kind of tune that will be on really heavy rotation over here... The rest of the album is all about the superlative musicianship and social sensibilities that were on display in Songs to Live By and The Wooden Tongue. We would all do well to listen and listen hard here. There are messages about the current state of our world, spoken in a deep, clear and lucid voice, that could one day save our souls. A must-have.
