Lexxicon is all about energy, about an infectious desire to move, jump, and touch. His brand of dancehall, innately liberating and enrapturing to any listener. The second single leading up to his third studio album, ‘Back To You’ is your by the numbers, contemporary electro pop tune. Enlisting the help of Torontian Desiire, the song makes itself known with a flurry of movement instilling beats and a complete disdain for a singular moment of stillness. It is kinetic, a dynamic piece of dancehall music that’s meant to be enjoyed in a club setting. Lexxicon’s latest album might seem risk averse, but it is in fact a concept album that delves deep into an entrancing tale of a couple who’ve recently found love while they land on the eponymously titled ‘Tropicon Island’.
The vocals are waning, a pained and evocative tune that uncovers deep desires. It goes from lows to highs, traversing a lengthy narrative all within a dance worthy electro-pop anthem. A genre-bending, hybrid piece to reckon with.
