Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Interesting!These guys are great, first got into them through seeing them live and have seen them a further three times since. This album is cool and well worth buying but if you want the full experience go watch the live show..... Rating:  - It should be brilliant, but....Ok, where to start? Well let's take this in two part; Lyrically, this album is genius. There are stories both serious, yet heart warming, and prompts further thought. Seriously, this should be winning awards. Musically... I have no idea what to make of it. Some is pretty good, but a lot is not mixed properly, and jars with the flow of the vocals with semi hip-hop, electro beats that sound pretty unrefined almost as if they have been lifted from an 8 yr old sampler CD of 80's noises. Still, for a first effort this pretty good, and is carried but the lyricist. I hope the subsequent efforts are better balanced. Rating:  - The only rapper worth listening to at the momentA genuine breath of fresh air against the British hip-hop and grime scenes that have gone right up their own backsides in an orgy of self-congratulation and vanity. Scroobius Pip's lyrics are insightful, thoughtful, and intelligent, yet still catchy. He talks about himself in honest terms and is happy not to be the centre of attention as well. He graciously namechecks a few other respected rappers like Mos Def but ploughs his own furrow and is one of the only rappers at the moment who is actually worth listening to. The music's slick as well, clever and subtle use of samples. If I had one criticism, it would be that because the lyrics are the centrepiece of the album, sometimes the music takes too much of a back-seat ...

Without wishing to undermine Dan Le Sac's excellent skill at providing sound effects and beats, there's no denying that the major draw to this combination is the incredibly talented bearded rapper, Scroobius Pip. Tackling subjects ranging from the state of UK Hip-Hop, to the concept of beauty, to depression and suicide, Scroobius Pip's lyrics are both very deep and often extremely clever. The highlight of the album is "Letter From God to Man", an anti-war song that beautifully samples Radiohead's "Planet Telex" while brilliantly demonstrating the lyrically angry side of Scroobius Pip. Alternatively, ... Read More: Rating: - Dan n pip's debutWhen you first clasp eyes on Scroobius Pip, he looks more like a local rabbi, rather than a rapper, and what a rapper this man is. Pip is easily the best rapper in the United Kingdom; actually, he is one of the best rappers in the world today. Unlike the majority of rappers, he isn't hung up on having a fancy image what he would rather concentrate on writing rhymes that are as good as he could possible write. Single Thou Shalt Always Kill is a perfect showcase for how brilliant Pip's lyrics are. The track could have been titled the commandments according to Scroobius Pip. During the song he manages to contradict himself At the beginning of the song, pip says "Thou shalt not take the names of Johnny Cash, Joe ... Read More: |
