Michael Kiwanuka Love & Hate

"LOVE AND HATE sets its widescreen vision from the start, opening with a 10-minute, glacially paced track that lets half its time run through before introducing Kiwanuka's aching vocal." -- Grade: B+
4 stars out of 5 -- "[A]s confident a second statement as you could wish for, full of strong melodies, affecting lyrics, sharp playing, immense arrangements and sympathetic production."
"Opener 'Cold Little Heart' is a stonking 10 minutes long -- a good five minutes of heroic 'While My Guitar Gently Weeps' soloing, the angelic trilling of a butter-soft choir and a sweeping string section before Kiwanuka's astonishingly self-possessed vocal strides into the mix."
