[usr 4]

Swedish pop musician Benjamin Ingrosso gets high off love on his ear-catching, exuberant first single of 2024, “Kite.” 

[otw_shortcode_dropcap label=”“I” size=”large” border_color_class=”otw-no-border-color” shadow=”shadow” square=”square”]can fly, it’s the real thing / I’m a kite, I, I get high on you.” The handsome, talented Swedish pop musician, Benjamin Ingrosso, is back with another hot track! The ‘high-flying’ “Kite” marks his first single of 2024.  “Kite” was written by Ingrosso alongside Jon Shave, Salem Al Fakir, Vincent Pontare, and Anya Jones.  Handling production duties are Shave and Vargas & Lagola.  Clocking in just under three minutes in duration, Benjamin totally puts his foot into this one![/otw_shortcode_dropcap]

First and foremost, Benjamin delivers a sensational vocal performance.  He is exuberant, filled with ample personality from the opening tip to the final note. Notably, we hear him deliver vocals in his lower, middle, and upper register, showing off his versatility.  Perhaps his best moments are his dynamic falsetto.  Of course, it helps when you have tuneful melodies to work with, not to mention memorable lyrics.  The section of the song to beat, unsurprisingly, is the chorus (excerpted above), where Ingrosso adds, “I fall in love on the ceiling / Now, call you mine, it’s all I want to do.” The infatuation is real: “You’re sweet like chocolate on my tongue / Let’s dig in deep, while we’re still young.” Yeah! Beyond the pipes and the lyrics, the backdrop is on-point too! Those hard hitting drums at the onset set the tone with their heaviness and percussiveness.  That bass line – EVERYTHING! And, fitting for the chorus, the backdrop is backdropping at its best! Benjamin Ingrosso does the damn thing on “Kite”.
