Our Take
Our Take
LAKECIA BENJAMIN's latest offering, Phoenix, is a fiery explosion of musical prowess that will have you dancing like a phoenix rising from the ashes.
The album kicks off with the energetic "Marching Orders," a brass-infused banger that sets the tone for what's to come. Benjamin's saxophone skills are on full display here, weaving in and out of the funky rhythms with precision and flair.
Tracks like "Take Back" and "Monet" showcase Benjamin's ability to blend genres seamlessly, effortlessly blending elements of jazz, funk, and soul into a cohesive sonic tapestry.
But it's on songs like "Lost and Found" and "Echo" where Benjamin truly shines, her soulful vocals floating effortlessly over intricate arrangements that are both powerful and haunting.
Throughout Phoenix, Benjamin proves that she's not just a talented musician, but a master storyteller as well. Each song feels like a chapter in a larger narrative, drawing the listener in with its rich textures and dynamic shifts.
In a music industry saturated with cookie-cutter pop stars, LAKECIA BENJAMIN stands out as a true original, a musical phoenix rising from the ashes to soar to new heights. Phoenix is a triumph, a testament to Benjamin's artistry and vision. Don't sleep on this album – it's a must-listen for any music lover.
