    While reining in the triumphalism, Demonstration suffers from an overbearing sense of its own importance. [Jan 2014, p.97]
  2. To be clear, the good outweighs the bad here, but Tinie has lost a lot of the charm that, when he turns it on, makes him so appealing.

    [A] chaotic, unwieldy mess.

    Some of the fresh-faced charm has gone, but he is sounding more like a bona fide star.

    There are enough decent moments to call Demonstration a success.

    The stakes were so high, the pressure was on and what makes him interesting was ironed out in favour of low risk, high percentage choruses. Couple that with a mixed bag of lyrics from the rapper himself, and you get a curiously crafted mess that contains a few great songs that you'll end up loving, and lot of numbers that just weren't bold enough or executed with confidence.
  7. This feels like a wearisome exercise in reasserting his market appeal.
