The delivery doesn't impress me, for most of the time the rhythms of Statik are generic jazzy, yet another showcase for Term and Haile Supreme, when a purely solo album would have been better. In the end, there's some tracks above the average, but overall, it's simply decent, generic album. The production is mainly jazzy, simple, essential, with few dark ("One Time") and trap ("Bad Luck") variations, composed of a skinny and minimal drum machine, while the delivery of UFO Fev at his best is clear, effortless and flowing. When the rhythm is fresh, the track slips away well ("Golden Soul", "Not Today"), when instead the most disparate commercial errors arrive the songs precipitating quickly in quality, especially because of the lame hooks ("On My Way", "Bad Luck", with autotune, "Not Today"; in the latter the pop soul chorus lowers the level of the song, livened up by a good deep and soulful jazzy rhythm and by an excellent sax in the background). Symbol of this effort, the "Hard Rock" posse: listened to several times, it continues to slip away without leaving anything, it goes unnoticed.
