Every time I hear a new track from Roll Deep they seem to be heading further and further away from their original sound and closer and closer towards glossy but bland old pop music.

As with their previous single, any evidence of Grime has been thoroughly washed out of Green Light until it could easily be mistaken for a track from a UK remake of High School Musical.
