The Night's Gambit is the third solo studio album by American rapper and record producer Kaseem "Ka" Ryan.
[7] RapReviews critic Patrick Taylor stated that it is "an excellent album, and one of the best manifestations of grimey New York hip-hop".
[5] Nate Patrin of Pitchfork admired that "as a rapper/producer, he [Ka] has that finely-tuned awareness of how a track works from every angle".
[3] Rolling Stone reporter Jonah Weiner said, "Over the hypnotic, self-produced drones of his third solo album, Ka is an auteur with a hushed delivery worthy of Nineties stalwarts like Raekwon and Prodigy".
[6] Marshall Gu of PopMatters said, "the album's brevity -- clocking just under 40 minutes -- and his penchant for bookending each song with samples are both welcome blessings".
