  1. It's a decent addition to the artist's already impressive resume, but fails to arrest the same attention his earlier releases are famous for.

    An easy recommendation for its obvious audience, but Together/Apart is a bit more than that as well, giving the genre of indie hip-hop some mass appeal whenever it decides to wild out.

    He and Budo's work together are a perfect match throughout the album. The lines are well crafted, and poignant, and the music is thoughtfully composed to match.

    Together/Apart is musical therapy for those who find themselves caught under the pressures of life.

    Overall Together/Apart is a very good record, and a few minor missteps from being a great one.

    There are times where Grieves really does resonate--whether talking about childhood, heartbreak, or other matters.

    While producer Budo creates melancholy set pieces--from the funereal piano of "Bloody Poetry" to the soulful organ grinding of "Heartbreak Hotel"--Grieves shines as a friendly, thoughtful voice, gladly ready to share secrets.

    Grieves still knows how to make catchy, emotive indie rap with the best of them.
