Dear Annie

"A steady flow of singles culminated in last year's `The Moon & You' mixtape. `Dear Annie', however, manages to be a marvellous step up - it's a record that should rightfully become one of the defining hip-hop releases of 2018".

"Snow has got a lot going for him: even if you wish he betrayed a tiny bit more of his geographical origins, you can see why he didn't want to scupper his chances, or risk being labelled a novelty, by doing so. You could call Dear Annie the first major Irish hip-hop album, but it seems more accurate to say it's a solid debut by a rapper whose nationality seems beside the point - which is pretty obviously what it intends to be".

"This Irish rapper's debut suggests great potential, even if he's limited for now by the obvious influence of N.E.R.D. and Tyler, the Creator ... It is a solid introduction to an able singer and MC who, at his best, recalls Kendrick's knack for voicing a variety of characters. That progressive approach is something hip-hop needs in order to sustain growth".
