FANTASTIC NEGRITO - SINGLE REVIEW

Fantastic Negrito feat. Sting - Undefeated Eyes 

Release Date: Out Now

Fantastic Negrito is one of the hardest working artists currently minstrelling around this green planet but when you combine that with his artistry and style, he is far more than just his industry. New single, 'Undefeated Eyes', features the guest talents of the one and only Sting but this is unmistakably a blues stomp straight from the Fantastic Negrito stable. The beat might not be organic but it is still heartbeat-esque, the bass is low'n'dirty, the guitars buzz like an angry bee and the whole thing is slathered thick, gooey organs. The twin vocals of Sting and Fantastic Negrito (or Gordon and Xavier to their mums) is as soulful and gritty as you'd expect, adding the cherries to the icing on top of the soul-food, chocolate fudge cake. Delicious.
