Review - Kenan Bell - Good Day

Kenan Bell - Good Day

View The Review

6 out of 10

Backed by 80s style synths and beats, 'Good Day' is a reasonable rap effort. To be honest though, there are some very surprisingly lazy rhymes contained within the song though such as 'new day' and 'to. day' amongst others. Track 2, 'Celebrity' is a much better tune in terms of The Streets' style guitar riffs and backing vocals. The production values are clearly very high and I can easily imagine this tune will hit the Radio 1 playlist running. It's not groundbreaking though, the Black Eyed Peas have done exactly this before, but it's not offensive. Track 3, 'Enjoy' shows a darker side to Bell, with a tune that would nestle nicely on the 8-mile soundtrack. This is where Bell shines.
