I think Lowkey is very good
But then again socio-political rappers do face some criticism
I prefer him to Immortal technique anyway
For his latest album, soundrack to the struggle these are the reviews:
UKRAPMUSIC- 9.5 / 10
Soul Culture- 9 / 10
Rap Reviews- 7/10
Beatknowledge/ social culture/ ceasefire magazine/ new beats media- favourable
So he must be doing something right
Admittedly, not all reviews are accurate, as XXL magazine still managed to give Snoop and WK a 'M'
