Critics' comments
Rockafeller Skank was very well-recieved with critics ranging from comedians to people from the Guardian.
“I'm not saying it's a bad song. I'm just saying you could, I don't know, dip a broom in diesel oil... stick the other end up my arse... put me on a trampoline in a moving lift, and I could write a better song on the walls! 5/5”
“Esta merde! Ich fackin hate! (10/10)”
