Empire could coast by in this season's remaining eight episodes - and probably for a couple more years - on its Timbaland-produced tunes and its outlandish, GIF-ready charms. Go to Full Review Craig Jenkins New York Times 04/01/2016
Jamal's song about the freedom to sleep with whomever he likes proves Empire can be sharp on sexuality when it wants. It's hard to think of the last time a television show cared enough to explain the finer points of sexual fluidity to a national audience. Go to Full Review Sean T. Collins Rolling Stone 03/31/2016
It's a fun hour for reuniting with your old friends (and frienemies), but pretty much a placeholder in all other aspects. Go to Full Review Lauren Jimerson Black Girl Nerds 06/26/2018
