4.0 out of 5 stars Spoken word with a punch and a beat., 4 May 2008
By M. K. Sutton "www.come2whereimfrom.co.uk" (Nottingham, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
After hearing quite sometime ago the lyrically brilliant `Thou Shalt Always Kill' by Dan le Sac vs Scroobius Pip I always wondered if these two would do an album proper and low and behold here it is. `Angles' is simply fantastic, if `The Streets' are hip-rap then this is punk-rap, beat poetry with humour and edge. If you have heard the first single and wondered like me how they could stretch the idea to 13 tunes, don't worry, they can and do very well, making this record a joy from start to finish. As well as heartfelt tunes like `Beat that my heart skipped', there's the interesting juxtaposition of Tommy cooper and relationships in `Tommy C' and a fantastic use of samples in `Fixed' (Fix up look sharp) and `Letter from God to man' (Planet Telex). Never shy of dealing with dark subjects the humour and forked wit balance out the harsher moments especially the 11 minute 3 part tale that closes the record. It's easy to make comparisons to `The Streets' because of Dan's vocal delivery but the beats owe more to the likes of Mark B and Blade or Money Mark, but that said this pair do seem to have a style all of their own. If you like semi-spoken word sticking to the man, woman and child music with a message, that doesn't take itself too seriously then you will probably get a lot from this album. Taking in styles ranging from funk, hip-hop, R&B, soul and dance expect to hear this a loads as the summer approaches and people start to realise just how much fun Dan and Scroobius are, it's the DJ Jazzy Jeff and Fresh Prince its ok to like.

5.0 out of 5 stars Quite superb, 4 May 2008
By Dr Gonzo (London) - See all my reviews
Have heard about half the album through various sources online and haven't been this impressed with an album for a long time. Lyrics are cleaver, witty and often touching and the beats are full of hooks that won't leave your head for days.

There will be obvious comparisons to The Streets but in my opinion, Dan and Pip are far superior.

The stand out tracks on the album are Look for the Woman, Beat that My Heart Skipped and Tommy C.

I can't recommend this highly enough, I suggest you give it a go.

4.0 out of 5 stars Genuinely intelligent and insightfully different British Hip-Hop act, 1 Jun 2008
By Alan Kasim (London, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
London-based duo Dan Le Sac and Scroobius Pip finally delivery their debut album, offering a much needed alternative to British Hip-Hop. 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, the harrowing and deeply moving "Magician's Assistant" shows Pip's anguish and depression, "Tommy" develops on his humour and wit, while the closing chapter of "Waiting for the Beat to Kick In" showcases the beauty in his lyrics clearer than in any other track. At the same time, radio-friendly tracks such as "The Beat That My Heart Skipped" and the excellent "Thou Shalt Always Kill" show a completely different side to the bearded rapper.
