    By Benga’s own high standards it feels a little flat.

    Benga is still adept at lacing abrasive beats with airplay-ready soul, but the songwriting doesn't always measure up. [Jul 2013, p.99]

    If it is uneven, that's because there's much more here than is necessary, rather than a sad dearth of ideas.

    Chapter II is enjoyable, it’s worth a listen through once; as given it’s so broad and diverse, it would be hard for the listener to not find one song they could listen to again. The disappointment for many will be shining through though, and while Benga may gain more exposure, many will feel he’s compromising his art in the process.

    The problem with Chapter II is that even the album’s high points are only just good, when the dubstep world has reasonably come to expect great things from Benga.

    A tedious album from an otherwise great talent.
