The Sunday Express , naming it their Album of the Week , calls it his 'most satisfying record since Nearly Human. Spill Magazine has it as it's Editors pick and it's reviewer's 'favourite album so far this year.'

The album gets a Grade C from the AV Club  who describe it as Todd Rundgren gets stuck in the ’80s with some famous friends. American Songwriter rates in two and half out of five and concludes ' once you warm up to the concept, there are enough moments on the eclectic smorgasbord to keep most fans engaged.' RollingStone goes for three stars and calls it predictably odd and comments that ' Inconsistency is like a muse here.'

Pitchfork is first out of the gates with a White Knight review concluding " a testament to his individuality in an industry that demands artists choose a lane and stay in it. Either way, it’s classic Rundgren: weird, charming, and dotted with his favorite kind of jokes—the kind that only he’s in on."

Todd tell's the Star tribune : "It's not going to happen," he said with a sigh in his voice. "We can't even get through the talks without somebody not getting on the page for whatever reason. Sometimes it's for good reason. At this point, there is nothing in the future for Utopia." Todd also speaks about the new album White Knight.

"I flew all the way to Hawaii one time to write with Todd Rundgren and he had warned me that he wasn't much of a collaborator and he was right. We spent all day together and he never once sat down at the piano to try and collaborate. But we had a great time. We got nothing from it except that it was a great trip to Hawaii." - Kenny Loggins on trying to collaborate with Todd  [The Biloxi Sun Herald (Mississippi) 7 March 2017 ]
