Linden has been praised by fellow music critics, journalist
Kandia Crazy Horse told
Rolling Stone that working on 2004's anthology ''Rip It Up: The Black Experience in Rock 'n' Roll'' with Linden was very gratifying.
Esquire magazine's music journalist
Alan Light called Linden prescient in her analysis of singer
Amy Winehouse. In 2023, Linden, who in 2014 was made a member of the Rock Hall nominating committee, correctly predicted on her podcast that the 2023
Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony would be held in New York City and not Cleveland. The event was later held at
Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York on November 2, 2023. Linden also co-hosts the
Immaletyoufinish podcast. ==References==
