| | Blueprint: 1988 - PopMatters Music Review |
 | | On 1988, Blueprint delivers a guide to a sparkplug of a year, capturing its essence whilst feeling bang up to date. |
 | | He has made the truth of those years his truth, delivering authentic slices of his personal history through hip-hop's prismatic traditional trinity: this is how it was, this is how it is, this is how it might yet be. |
 | | You can choose to view the fact that not much has changed musically in 17 years with either contentment or regret, but with regards to the message, there now seem to be a majority who never listened properly, and for them, Blueprint's solo debut rewinds things to Year Zero. |
