| In his introduction to DIPSET: MORE THAN MUSIC, Diplomat Records VP Duke Da God offers up his own unique reinterpretation of the famous Malcolm X line, declaring "we didn't land on (Plymouth) Rock, we moved the rock." It's as good a summation as any for the Diplomats' raucous, uncompromising style, on display in full effect on this supremely potent mixtape-style release. Every member of the Harlem crew shows up on DIPSET: MORE THAN MUSIC, from founder Cam'Ron to eccentric Jim Jones to newcomer Jha Jha, the group's first female rapper. | |
| As usual with this crowd, the hooks are non-stop, from the gratifying loop of Otis Redding's "Hard To Handle" on "Dipset Symphony" to the distorted lushness of a child's choir singing Jefferson Starship on "If Only You Believe." The former, which features most of the Diplomats chiming in, reaffirms the band's abiding love for hip-hop history, effortlessly weaving in knowing references to everyone from A Tribe Called Quest to Eric B. & Rakim. Every member of the Diplomats flows, and they play off each other with ease; it's hard to imagine them having more fun than they do on DIPSET: MORE THAN MUSIC. | |

The Wire (p.71)
- "The thing about Harlem's Diplomats is that they always manage to pull off things that, on paper, seem kind of absurd."
