Good Points: Awesome album, great production and cool features. All good!

General comments: Nearly 4 years has passed since Wordsmith dropped his debut LP ' The Roadman Showcase ' . Now he ' s back with follow up set ' In Pursuit of Harmony ' , an album sure to make a mark on UK Hip Hop this year.Wordsmith takes a mature approach to many issues " the ins and outs of weed smoking ( ' The Cro Debate ' ), being a father ( ' Son ' ), gun crime ( ' Never Would ' ve Thought ' ), the ups and downs of life ( ' Carry On 'and ' Beautiful Life ' ) and today ' s youth ( ' They Don ' t Seem To Care ' ). When he ' s not proving he could teach an MP a thing or two he ' s straight illing out with his partners in rhyme " check ' Lok Dat ' , ' Runaway 'and the ridiculously tense ' Leave It Alone 'for a few examples of that.With perfectly crafted rhymes Wordsmith proves he ' s not a one trick pony " he ' s a well rounded artist who has fashioned an actual album, rather than a collection of songs. This LP really deserves one of those track by track breakdowns; every one is of such high quality.With a list of producers like this (Apa-Tight, Vee Kay, Chemo, Beat Butcha, Ido, Tom Caruana and Show n Prove) I don ' t have to tell you that the beats are proper, heavy Hip Hop with an emphasis on the uplifting. The fact that there ' s not a skip-able track on here speaks volumes " you ' ll wanna listen right through.Mic duties are shared with Foreign Beggars, Dr. Syntax, Dubbledge, Micall Parknsun, Skribblah, Diamond Ruff, Big Ben, Genesis Elijah, Supar Novar and Ahmos "all of whom put in sterling work.
