    Packed to its peak with wavy guitars and deeply soulful vocals
    Read Review

  2. 8.0 |   Under The Radar

    The funneled, slow churning, sample drum-loop rhythms and translucent sheets of filtered guitar, horns, and keys deepen the dimensions where reflections can loiter

  3. 8.0 |   The Observer

    Superb psychedelic soul debut
    Read Review

  4. 8.0 |   All Music

    The album's potent mix of soul-searching lyrics and spaced-out sonics lends itself to deep thought and accompanied stargazing

  5. 8.0 |   musicOMH

    Green Twins demands your attention, in a subtle but compelling way. If Hakim ever comes back to earth, it’ll be interesting to see where he takes us next

  6. 8.0 |   Q

    High on sonic invention. Print edition only

  7. 7.9 |   Pitchfork

    Inspired by soul singers like Marvin Gaye and Curtis Mayfield, the D.C.-born singer puts a modern spin on classic concepts. His genre-bending debut operates at a fever pitch

  8. 7.8 |   Earbuddy

    This album works best as a whole rather than separate. Twins typically don’t prefer to be separated anyway, right? Sit down, take it all in, and most definitely share Green Twins with the one you love

  9. 7.0 |   Uncut

    A truly futuristic slice of R&B. Print edition only

  10. 6.0 |   The 405

    Impeccably tailored and has some gorgeous ideas. What it lacks is the confidence to stretch its colour palette into areas the listener might not immediately associate with other, trailblazing artists

  11. 6.0 |   The Irish Times

    A little more hormones, a lot less electricity and who knows what might happen?
