“Landry dominates the entirety of the stage, taking charge from song to song, playing off the building energy of her audience. Creating a performance that takes root in one’s mind for days later.” -Britt Julious, Chicago Tribune
“On the mic, she’s able to rock the crowd, & she can deliver some hard, urgent rhymes, but she can also switch it up and deliver on some quiet, intimate moments as well, and transition with ease into a more vulnerable delivery to match the lyrics.” - Chi Chi, Scratched Vinyl
