Warrior is a beautiful track, a great starting point for audiences first discovering Elz Bentley or generally looking for something fresh, loaded with good vibes and positivity. It’s a short recording, less than two minutes; short and effective enough to leave you wanting much more. The musical backdrop is peaceful, ambient, and easy to get into. The artist’s leading voice floats alongside this with quiet confidence. His tone of voice is soft yet serious, driven, a calm kind of passion. The lyrics are presented with a gentle spoken-word style that makes it easy to follow and settles you down sweetly after a long day. It’s emotional, but not overwhelmingly so, and never too personal that it doesn’t connect.
Elz Bentley is a very talented and passionate rapper from Kentucky. He is a guy who entered mainstream rap recently and is trying to make his own mark with his unique style. With him giving his 100% to produce music that is interesting to listen to he is standing out with his southern beats and story-driven music. Kentucky isn’t well known for its rap culture, being that it’s the bluegrass state, but in this track, Elz Bentley is proving that his country rhymes can contend with the best and most cosmopolitan cuts in the game these days.
There are moments of personal drive and reaching for goals, which lets you get a little closer to the thought process and character behind it all, yet for the most part, there are extensive moments of oneness – inclusivity, the feelings we all can feel, the dreams we all can have. It’s simplistic yet powerful, and, as mentioned, the energy the track gives off is so chilled that the feeling transfers to you almost instantly when you press play. The music is calm and fresh and reliable – you can hope for the best kind of vibes, the confident performance, the quirky and inventive lyricism, and you’ll never be disappointed.
