 | RA Review Dissecting an act like Hype Williams could easily prove to be perilous. Their ability to effortlessly switch roles between sincerity, farce and aloofness within the course of a single song has given them an air of critical invulnerability, almost impervious to the wonderings of what, if any, meaning..

I think the 'blueprint' feeling is exactly what Hype Williams is all about... their music always feels either half-composed or half-destroyed... in a good way? Not for everyone but I definitely love it.

| #7 / Thu, 31 Mar 11 12:44 'Unfaithful' is brilliance (even at 2 minutes) - sounds like an old Chicago track or somit, like Leron Carson. Wish is was a little longer. Mitsubishi is another favourite.
