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.
