So what happened to John Doran...? Has Skepta or anyone for Boy Better Know done him something?? That man's got issue and he has NO rights to slaughter Skepta's album 'Doin it again' when he's probably found out what 'grime' was 4 weeks ago! I don't really listen to Grime anymore but Skepta is talented, versatile and found the album pretty good actually! Unlike John Doran I would have gave the album a 8/10..
Maybe John Doran didnt get laid for 6weeks prior to the review... who knows???
John Doran NME.COM Review:
"One-time grime talent turned straight-up X Factor standard pop star Skepta can barely be bothered anymore, it seems. ‘Doin’ It Again’features a lazy and cynical production job – witness Auto-Tune slathered over the cracks like Artex on the walls of a house built too close to a cliff edge.
Beyond the sonics, the lyrics are embarrassingly piss-poor as well. “The game is like a box of Roses/Because when they’re done with the chocolate the rapper gets thrown away”, he spits in a rare moment of insight.
This is the sound of grime destroying itself – not helped by the fact that in the US, Odd Future are making this shit feel , ooh, about 30 years old. "
