It's difficult to think of a more exciting debut by a reggae singer in this century (and not just because this one kicks off with a cover of S.O.S. Band). Eva Lazarus and Mungo's Hi Fi seem to shift organically between every rhythm and subgenre of reggae music--plus some hip hop beats and rhymes--sounding completely in command at all times. Lazarus has a rich, versatile, and powerful voice and a gift for lyrics and flow, so much so that the stylistic drops feel like mastery and not imitation or gimmickry. Let's hope there's much more to come.
