Kendall Elijah - Sittin'
Artist: Kendall Elijah
Producer: The Pyrex Kid
Album: None (Promo Single)
Label: Unsigned
I can respect any young artist who goes out on a limb musically. Case in point, Hayettsville, MD crooner Kendall Elijah, who heard Otis Redding’s classic, (Sittin’ On) The Dock Of The Bay, and evidently saw a remake of the song as an opportunity, rather than a risk. On Sittin Kendall lyrically spends a fair amount of time sitting and plotting his next move, while the underlying meaning of this song explores life’s deeper ranges of emotions. Production can be credited to The Pyrex Kid, who should not be confused with the top of the line kitchenware, despite the fact he manufactures the base for Elijah’s entrée. At the moment, this offering is not tied to any particular project, but with such a versatile sound and soulfully modernized fare, I foresee Mr. Elijah becoming a regular in the DJBooth.

Otis is one of my all-time favorites, but Kendall did him justice. I really liked his last verse.

Yo I really dig Otis Redding so I had to click on the track when I saw the description. I always appreciate when songs have an actual concept to follow, which is kind of rare unfortunately. And I liked the verse in the middle there. BUT the vocals of the rest of the track didn't work well for me. I thought it was just kind of awkward.

Some tracks aren't meant to be sampled. Otis Redding "Sittin on the dock of the bay" is one of those tracks. Pick something - anything else.
Kendall has the same smoked out sound as Kid Cudi - but not as clean. Skip this one. |
