The album all UK heads had been waiting for since the nightmare surrounding the 'Dettwork SE' album. I really don't need to say how good this is, but I will. It's 19 tracks deep, with not a weak one among them. Starting with the title track, the excellent '19 Long Time', through the bare beats of the collaboration with Roots Manuva 'Shhhoosh', on to '(Live from the) Big Smoke' - the firestarter - "swinging like my dog's bollocks" - the 'black Jeremy Paxman' drops his knowledge for us, taking us to 'The Perfect Love Song' and beyond... The lyrics are wicked, the beats are superb, the album is greater than the sum of its parts. In short, a classic.
