    Rizzle Kicks are best when brisk and larky--more heartfelt musings on love and being true to yourself are banal.

    It's dumb (how's "I love beer, I love rhymes, I love sex" for nuance?), but it's hard not to love a musician who puts their mum on a track (props Mrs Stephens on Lunatic).

    Roaring 20s provides cod-reggae backing for Jordan Stephens and Harley Alexander-Sule to discuss the impact of social media and the nature of fame. [Oct 2013, p.74]

    They’re not lyrically great by any stretch of the imagination, but they could be a lot better, as their debut album shows.

    At its best, Roaring 20s is clumsy and awkward. At its worst, it’s hectoring and condescending.
