XLR8R “among
the best comebacks in rap history”
Elemental “the
ultimate masterpiece, concise lyricism, unwaivering
delivery and seemingly slick and simple production”
Complex “the
Queens native shows that he can still kill it”
CMJ “eclectic
and exceptional”
Urb “like the
Wu Tang Clan’s Gravel Pit sucked into a black hole”
Allhiphop.com “an
underground banger”
Q Magazine "Revered
underground hero ropes in left-field producers to unveil
the future of hip hop... it's a one-disc showcase for hip
hop's next generation..." ****
Time Out "Prince Po(etry) lives up
to his reputation as one of America's rhyming royalty...
a stellar guest list (MCs Jemini, Raekwon and MF Doom;
producers Madlib, Danger Mouse and Richard X) secures the
(real) deal... the regal has landed."
The NME "The Slickness is anything
but slick, stuffed with ragged, rugged, thugged beats from
the likes of Madlib and J-Zone... provide Po with the best
forum for his snappy, inebriated, artfully profane rhyme
flow... Slick? No, and thank fuck for that..."
Hip Hop Connection "Prince's mic skills
have never been in doubt. And ain't a damn thing changed
here as his elocution of concepts and stringing together
of syllables is as impeccable as ever in 2004... The Slickness
is the sound of Prince Po looking to the future." ****
The Fly "stripped back beats... seriously
on-point lyricism... one of the finest hip hop debuts of
recent times" ****
i-D "a juggernaut of an album" |
