Set based on newly released first album:
"If “Oh! What A Glorious Thing” is Akira The Don’s breakout track, then this album is the essential arsenal to back it all up. The pulsating hip hop of “Liverpool” is jammed with a bursting electronic fire and the subtle addition of a subliminal guitar riff. Dead clever stuff that includes an earlier single “Clones” and the cruising Human League-ish “London”, which seems to hang off a refrain similar to The Stranglers “Get A Grip“ – it’s another stand out, powerful track.
This is an essential album that embraces the realities of The Streets, full blown hip hop and a sense of adventurism. Applaudable ('til your hands are sore) but more importantly, enjoyable stuff." Manchester Music.
