Benks Ez Boy give us Day One – and bring the X Ova Riddim straight into Vybz Kartel/Popcaan/Govana territory. The track is a pleasing mix of both vocal and singjay. His work on the latter is bang-up-to-date, focussing more on the melodic side of the style, working around intricate runs up and down the diatonic scale while still maintaining fairly detailed rhythmic patterns. And his melodic jumps up around an octave are impressive. Then, his main vocal across the chorus is also very strong. Benks Ez Boy has a good range, working in a mid-to-upper tenor with an infectious melody. The arrangement and engineering of his vocals is, again, full-on 2020: vocoder is added, his background responses have been tinkered with to sound a scratchier, more rasping in timbre than the main line...
