 "Javi’s strength as an artist has always been that he knows exactly who he is. Despite this being his first earnest foray in rap, dude comes across like he’s been doing this for years. I could say he’s got the aesthetic eye of Hiro Murai, the quirky, magnetic swagger of Lil Dicky and J. Cole’s sharp, philosophic command of words, but really that’s a disservice to the singularity and authenticity Javique brings to the table." Nate Koch, Copeland_Index on Javique's debut single, Videogames
