 | RA Review LV's stellar 2011 album Routes was a meditation on inner city London life narrated by beat poet Joshua Idehen. It was good enough to forget that the year before the UK group had disappeared to South Africa and returned with one of 2010's most infectious singles, the incomprehensible and deliriou..

| #6 / Mon, 03 Sep 12 16:57 Routes was on of my favorite albums last year. I was also one of the longest "growers" on me.
At first I thought it was nothing special and then after listening to it at least 10 times it hit me.
I listened to the samples of this album and wasn't to pleased but then again may be it's a grower.

| #12 / Wed, 05 Sep 12 23:42 THIS is MASSIVE. I love the lyrical content these fierce young MCs bring. The result is one of the most lasting impressions I've had with any album of any genre this year. The self-referential-caught-in-the-moment hooks relating to modernity and the internet age really made this one for me. Superb!

| #16 / Fri, 14 Sep 12 12:54 I don't deny the objective quality of this album, i'ts original and what I appreciate is that LV's music seems to adjusts to the MC's and the SA sound rather than the opposite; However, I wasn't touched by this album: maybe because, not being a native english speaker, I didn't understand the lyrics fully and also because I found the beats rather weak, espcially the sound of the drum-machine on most tracks. I know it's pretty unfair and this album deserves more time and deciation fro me, which I'll do diligently!
