    Only half of the album had unreleased songs the other half had songs that were between 2 and 3 years old. The topics where mostly mundane and the instrumentals weren't as grimey as they should have been for one of the biggest grime artists of 2016.

    A strong album and potential watermark moment in both Skepta career and grime’s history.

    Konnichiwa isn’t just the sound of young Britain, but a bar-raising example of just how creative UK music can be.

    Lines aimed at authority, competition, and bottom feeders all shoot clean through.
