    No doubt, Chilltown consistently delivers solid hip-hop cuts. But in comparison to his 2002 release React, Sermon's well of creativity might be running dry.

    "Chilltown, New York" proves itself a worthy successor not only to 2002's "React" but to the rest of Sermon's long and storied rap career.

    He puts down the rumour-mongers with an acid tongue. [Nov 2004, p.100]

    While none of these spare summer jams of knotty beats match his Marvin Gaye-sampling 2001 hit "Music," almost any would freshen radio. [Aug 2004, p.139]

    His preoccupation with age and past-due credit... deadens even his thickest bass lines and most buoyant beats.

    As strong as anything Sermon's done.
