Reception

A Bit of a Mad One was included in Vogue's list of the best albums of 2024. Taylor Antrim wrote that it is "denser and darker and more infectious start to finish than anything he’s put out" and that "[h]is best compositions are relentless, earnest, assaultive, offhand, and weirdly pretty at the same time."^[5]
