DrewS.Sep 4, 2007This record is a fantastic listen, superficially as well as more deeply. Dense lyrical delivery leave so much to be deconstructed, and the beats are intricately composed. And really, the songs just groove so well. Intriguing lyrics + thick, interesting beats = one hell of a record.

OmarMOct 10, 2007Easily his most listenable album. No songs are lyrically as memorable as Coma, No Regrets, or Daylight -- but some beats, like Coffee, are unforgettable.

JordanG.Aug 31, 2007Wow, did it just get darker in here or is it just the world as written by Aesop? Faerie tales for the saturday morning cartoon breakfast cereal betrayed generation.

JerryJ.Aug 31, 2007Simply one of the greatest records of Aesop's career. More autonomous prose that will make all true Aesop disciples proud. The production is phenomenal. Blockhead is back with a vengeance - but every beat is truly unique and worthy of two thumbs up. Fascinating lyrical landscapes; gritty and smokey and everything you love about Aes. Check out Coffee. Damn.

Sep 10, 2011Great album, with masterfully blended lyrics. One of my favorite albums of all time, you will listen to this only understanding half of the things he raps. All his songs will need 5+ listens to begin to comprehend his lyrics.

Jan 8, 2016A classic. I loved this album and still listen to it all the time. I think it is one of Aesop's best albums. Hard beats and complicated lyrics. Some classic songs and great featured artists. And not for every hip hop fan either. It is very unique but worth a listen.

It's Christmas come early, and None Shall Pass won't disappoint his fervent admirers.

BlenderBitter, cold and insular, None Shall Pass is also profoundly (if proudly) out of step. [Sep 2007, p.124]

Entertainment WeeklyIt's heady but funn stuff, eased along by bluesy, turgid grooves from frequent collaborators Blockhead and El-P, as well as Aesop himself. [31 Aug. 2007, p.65]
