Playtime Is Over is miles forward from the Wiley of 'Wot U Call It' and 'Who Ate All the Pies' but it sits uneasily behind Sway's One For the Journey and Kano's The Mixtape projects
-
Beatwise, Playtime culls Wiley's best dubs from the last year, with tracks like 'Bow E3' and '50/50' flexing textbook mastery over grime's sludgy polyrhythm.

SpinWiley only occassionally departs from the script. [Oct 2007, p.112]

As it stands, though, Wiley's third album is less inspired sign-off than something of an empty accomplishment.
-
Just cold, robotic electro beats with Wiley's aggressive cockney flows on the usual subjects.
