El DeBarge Jr., namesake of the famous
Motown singer El DeBarge, has released his first solo EP album on
Industry Family Entertainment / Entertainment District Records. The
EP record is titled “The Lion's Den” and is a collection of
original R&B and modern-soul tracks both written and performed by
El DeBarge, Jr. “The Lion's Den” is an expertly executed,
tastefully composed record that is sure to solidify young DeBarge as
one of the year's most important up-and-coming R&B artists.
The main feature of the extended-play
album is El DeBarge, Jr., himself. He is best classified as a
singer, rather than merely a vocalist, a distinction that will set
him apart from many modern performers of the R&B genre today.
His voice and style are crisp, clean, and natural like his father's,
though much more sonorous and soulful. His lyrical content tends
mainly toward the romantic, though he has penned lines on several
other topics in the past. His music has deep, snappy groove and
tasteful melody lines. His rhythms take their cue from the best
Motown artists of the late seventies and early eighties. While
DeBarge Jr. definitely fits in with contemporary R&B singers such
as Babyface or Chris Brown, he exudes a level of class and finesse
more akin to Marvin Gaye, or even Al Green.
The “Lion's Den” EP is not his only
recent activity, however, as he has also released a new video for his
single, “Shawty R U OK.” The video, like the track itself, as
well as the entirety of DeBarge's material, showcases DeBarge's
professional-yet-unpretentious demeanor. The music video, which is
expertly directed by Will J. Smith, shows that El is obviously ready
for the global arena of sound and stage performance. R&B fans,
El DeBarge Jr. fans, and new listeners alike are encouraged to see
the complete music video here (and on myriad other music websites
worldwide): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DV1Ugb8wHEY.
