Ryan McDermott - Paradise
Artist: Ryan McDermott
Producer: Ryan McDermott
Album: Ryan vs The Sandman: The Tale of the Sleepwalkers
Label: G.O.O.D. Music/Def Jam
A singer, songwriter and producer who’s penned records for such musical luminaries as Earth, Wind and Fire, Ryan McDermott recently added his name to the G.O.O.D. Music roster. On new single Paradise, his first release via his new label home, McDermott gives us a foretaste of the creativity and versatility that caught Kanye‘s eye ear. Backed by his boardwork, a catchy yet ominous mix of ‘80-inspired synths and plodding percussion, the artist exhibits a unique, reedy vocal presence and a cryptic lyrical sensibility. Darren Romanelli directs the official video, depicting McDermott parting ways with a significant other under mysterious circumstances. Intrigued? Then keep it locked for the latest news and tunes leading up to the currently-unscheduled release of debut mixtape Ryan vs The Sandman: The Tale of the Sleepwalkers.

Dcermott;s voice was great in the beginning but as it went on I grew a little tired of it. I felt it wasn't as good in the chorus the most. and the actual beat of this track was a little dull as well. But hes got some potential for sure.. in rotation for me

After my second time listening to this, I have decided it was a banger. His vocals are great. Nice blend of percussion and synths.

Going in I had high expectations, but overall I just really wasn't that big of a fan of Ryan's vocals. At times they seemed whiny and it wasn't something that I can honestly say appeals to my sense of taste when it comes to music. I did enjoy the beat, however. If the vocals had been a bit better then this would have easily been banger status for me, but then again, you win, some you lose some.

Nice lyrics. The beat was a bit slow... A little too slow. Too much auto-tune also. The voice's actual sound seemed to be replaced.
