Ben One - My Eyes
Artist: Ben One
Producer: Ben One & Emmaculate
Album: Promo Single
Label: Universal Republic
Ah, the imagination—the stem of all human creativity and innovation. Whether it’s a new color of paint for a room, a new pair of shoes to match an outfit, or things of a more sensual nature, the imagination can conjure it all up. On Ben One‘s new promo single, My Eyes, the Chicago singer describes a few fantasies that fall into the latter category. Many of you know Ben One from previously-featured single Never Leave My Girl and its Twista and Sly Polaroid-featuring remix; stylistically, not too much has changed, but fans of Ben’s Booth debut are are going to find very little to complain about here. The track opens with the chorus, complete with a piano-driven beat and a sugar-sweet vocal hook. On the verses, Ben and co-producer Emmaculate blend a reggae-influenced keyboard groove with some lush, synthesized swooshes, building up to a climactic bridge featuring some sultry female backing vocals. Rather than leaving this track to your imagination, I would suggest you don your headphones and experience it yourself—this cut comes highly recommended.

R&B-goodness. Emmaculate follows the radio-ready recipe to a tee. This should fine a nice slot on your local radio station playlist. Way to rep Chi-town, Ben.

Nice production on this it is creative and original. Ben One vocals work nice with the beat and the female singer does a good job accompanying him on the hook. Solid track!

I know it's a trend, but Ben One's vocals are so good that he doesn't even need the auto-tune. It just seems unneccessary to me. The production is solid, and the melody is catchy enough to even maintain the support of auto tune haters like myself.

Solid R&B record. The production was good (love the piano), the hook was catchy and Ben One has some decent vocals. Overall, it is nothing spectacular but in rotation.

I can stand this track for a couple of plays. I think the autotune was used to match his voice with the tempo..
