| | Wildchild: Secondary Protocol: Pitchfork Review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20) |
 | | There are certainly plenty of interesting ideas at work here, and sometimes they come together: The first of the aforementioned singles, "Code Red", won't settle the ongoing debate over Wildchild's lyrical skills, but the banging, clickety-clack percussion track will surely keep heads nodding. |
 | | Responding to a question about the album's personal nature, Wildchild goes off on a tangent to explain that Secondary Protocol is for "the mainstream heads, the worldwide heads, universal." And therein lies the problem: he seems to want this record to be all things to all people. |
 | | There's not a lot obviously wrong here, but coming from a member of the Lootpack (whose 1999 LP Soundpieces: Da Antidote was a milestone for underground hip-hop), Secondary Protocol is just too damn homely to make a lasting impression in these heady days of consistently intense one-upmanship throughout the underground scene. |
