This follow-up to 2000's Mercury-nominated Sincere once more sees classically-trained producer MJ Cole (Matt Coleman) calling on special guests to help produce a UK garage album that people too old for Ayia Napa can buy. The finest contribution is from Jill Scott on the soulful "Perfect Pitch", although clearly-barking dancehall star Elephant Man is great on "Madman". Unfortunately, Cole's production is so smooth that the album does occasionally slip off the coffee table and into wallpaper territory.
