    Rarely makes for easy listening.... though the album's second half is notably more harmonious. [May 2016, p.104]

    Her signature hollowed-out minimalism nicely suits the subject matter, sometimes rising in urgency before falling into a deceptive calm.

    Brute's most interesting flourishes are all surface-level. Take them away and you're left with Al Qadiri reusing the same musical ideas.

    Her more grime-like productions bite with milk teeth, and melodies forget the errands they were sent on. Do her anaemic laments symbolise a generation being drained of its political lifeblood? Perhaps, but they aren’t enjoyable to listen to.
