    Just 2 songs (This Way, Who's Who) are listenable, the remaining is just rubbish.

  1. Chunky, hook-laden songs like Tryin' to Breathe and This Way show a newfound sonic confidence, but Dilated Peoples remain astoundingly dull MCs, delivering earnest and predictable rhymes.
  2. Three albums in, their belief that success and integrity don’t have to be mutually exclusive, is finally starting to pay off.
  3. Most of the blame for Neighborhood Watch has to go to the previously invincible Alchemist, whose productions are front-loaded on the record. Unfortunately, his beats aren't rugged or hooky, just astonishingly weak.
