Angles (Dan Le Sac vs Scroobius Pip album)

Angles is the debut studio album by the British hip hop duo Dan Le Sac vs Scroobius Pip. Released on November 24, 2008, by the independent record label, B-Unique Records, the album blends Scroobius Pip's distinctive spoken word style with Dan Le Sac's electronic music production.

The album received considerable critical acclaim for its innovative combination of genres and Scroobius Pip's intelligent and often socially conscious lyrics. Tracks such as "Thou Shalt Always Kill," "Music," and "Superman" became notable singles, contributing to the album's success and establishing the duo's unique place within the music scene. The album's overall tone is characterized by a blend of witty observation, sharp social commentary, and introspective reflection, all delivered with a high level of lyrical dexterity. The production is generally upbeat and catchy, though with moments of darker, more atmospheric soundscapes.

While not achieving mainstream chart success to the same degree as some other contemporary artists, Angles holds significant importance in the independent music scene, cementing the duo's reputation for their artistic integrity and their commitment to lyrical storytelling. Its influence can be seen in subsequent artists who have attempted to blend electronic music with spoken word or rap. The album's legacy lies not solely in its commercial performance but more significantly in its impact on the development and evolution of the UK hip hop scene.
