    Loving Wileys old school vibe on this album, still got a modern touch but not too modernised like most new grime albums. U were always pt 2 takes you back to Grime at its finest. Best album since treadin on thin ice!!

    The true godfather of grime. This album shows the origins of where it all started from by adding all star features to the line up. Great job Wiley!

    He really proves why he is the Godfather and the collaborations just bring the past glory into present terms. As a grime fan this is an excellent body of work!

    Absolutely full of bangers. It's been a long time coming but nothing about the album disappoints. An absolute grime classic.

    Great album, didn't skip a single track. Sounds like a future classic - no commercial chart tracks, old school only.
  • Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 2 August 2017
    I had no expectation musically and was only slightly fearful looking at the cover photo. I mean, more experienced purchasers might have assumed it was going to be a bit loud, innit? However, motivated by listening to Pattern Up Properly whilst waiting in a shoe shop I took the plunge. When I say motivated, I couldn't actually believe the lyrics as they shot passed my ears and decided to revisit.

    Suffice it to say, I haven't managed to get to the end of the CD and my Grime toe in the water has been swiftly withdrawn.

    Reviewed in Japan on 3 August 2018
    普通この様なダイナミックで派手なサウンドのアルバムだと一回聴いただけで飽きてきてしまい眠った
    ままになってしまうのだが、これはWILEYの隙の無い力強いMCが、サウンドに見事に反応し緻密な
    世界をつくりあげているのでつい繰り返しきいてしまう稀なHIPHOPに仕上がっている。
    派手なサウンドといってもシンセのフレーズなどはそれだけでもスリルを感じさせるもので質の高い
    プロデュースとの幸運な出逢いがこのアルバムの成功に不可欠だったことが体験できる。
    ちなみに2018年にはGODFATHER 2がCDでも発売になっているのだはAMAZONには出品されて
    いなかったので米国のE-BAYで購入しました。
