“With a background producing in mainstream hip-hop and R&B, and many years in the music business behind him, his excellent and varied releases this year built on the huge momentum of last year's standout One EP. Now an alumnus of Classic, Funkineven's Apron Records, and Doc Daneeka's Ten Thousand Yen, Davis Jr. makes music that really tells the tale of his life; it is at once dark and messed up, weird and abstract—no doubt a result of his previous difficulties with addiction and depression—but it's also sweetly soulful and positively uplifting, thanks to his irresistibly louche vocals. Beyond that, his funky, scuffed drums and lithe synths betray a passion for artists like Prince, but more importantly, they continue to separate him from the crowd”.
