    He’s a little pitchy at points… and his melody lines go in weird places. not in that good Bilal sort of way where its jazzy and interesting, but in a hmm…. why the f*ck did you do that kind of way. good luck tho hahaha

    This song is just not it…I see where they are trying to go with the sound…but in no part of the song will you have a time that it grabs hold of you and takes you to a place where you would like to press the repeat button.

    Granted, his voice is pretty unique. But these glossed over vocals and melodies just aren’t too likeable.

    I forcefully listened three times. Use another strong song for public testing. But before you do…he needs a new look…really. When I saw the picture I was expecting something totally different. The tattoo’s and such throw you completely off.

    WATCH THE VIDEO BEFORE YOU PLAY THE SONG.

    He’s got a cool voice. He makes me think a little of Austin Brown, as far as his image.
