Presstext
- "It's Jazz! Der US-Saxophonist Kamasi Washington veröffentlicht mit seinem dreistündigen Debüt "The Epic" das vielleicht relevanteste, radikalste Album des Jahres." - (Spiegel Online 05/15, 10.0 points)
- "Kamasi Washingtons wahrhaft episches Debüt-Album "The Epic", es erstreckt sich über drei Vinyls/CDs und ist mit 172 Minuten so lang wie "Der Pate", ist ein Meilenstein auf dem Weg, Brainfeeder zu einem so wichtigen Label zu machen wie Def Jam in den Achtzigern oder Impulse in den Sechzigern." (Spiegel Online 05/15, 10.0 points)

- "In drei Teilen entsteht eine Saga, die vor Swing und Groove strotzt, die modal virtuos und lustvoll free wogt und rast, in der sich soulvoller Gesang und Biggest-Band-Arrangements mischen, dabei Novelty und Lounge anspielen und alle möglichen Fusion-Ideen ausführen. (...) Als heller Stern unter einigen Gleichen strahlt Washingtons massiver Ton - viel Coltrane, mehr Pharoah Sanders, leichter als David S. Ware - aus dieser afrofuturistischen Expedition. (...) Fantastisches Album!" (Rolling Stone 05/15)

- „Hin und wieder begegnet einem unerwartet ein Meisterwerk. 'The Epic' ist so eines (…).“ (Süddeutsche Zeitung, 18.05.2015)
