Published: about 1 year ago

On July 21st, the dynamic musical duo of Kataleya & Kandle fulfilled their promise to fans and released their much-hyped single, "Binkolele," as the first track from their upcoming EP, "Call it Love - EP." The news of the release had spread like wildfire two weeks before, with the reveal of the artwork generating excitement and anticipation among their dedicated fanbase.

"Binkolele", however, fails to live up to the immense hype and expectations. Marketed as the mind-blowing masterpiece off the EP, the song falls flat, and will certainly leave fans underwhelmed.

From the very beginning, "Binkolele" exhibits signs of being a rushed and unpolished track. The abrupt start with an intro that quickly transitioned into a two-line verse will catch many listeners off guard, and not in a positive way. The song's lack of confidence in its own structure was evident, and it struggled to find a clear direction.

One of the most glaring issues with the single was its composition. After the initial verse, "Binkolele" took an unexpected turn by diving straight into the bridge, something that will leave listeners bewildered and longing for a cohesive storyline. The disjointed structure makes it difficult for the song to build momentum, and it ultimately falls like a series of disconnected fragments rather than a well-crafted piece.

As the song progressed, it finally seems to find its footing with a decent verse, which showcases the duo's undeniable talent. However, any hopes of redemption are quickly dashed as the track fails to deliver additional verses. This is sure to leave the audience craving more substance and depth, turning what could have been a standout track into an incomplete and disappointing experience.

Perhaps the most unforgivable aspect of "Binkolele" was its lackluster hook. A song's hook is meant to be its most memorable and infectious part, but in this case, it was anything but. The unimaginative and lackadaisical hook falls far short of what fans have come to expect from Kataleya & Kandle. This hook will naturally leave a bitter taste in their fans' mouths.

Despite the duo's talent and potential, "Binkolele" misses the mark by a wide margin. It's evident that the rushed production and questionable song structure hinders the song's ability to shine. As a result, the chances of this single becoming a massive hit outside of their most devoted fans seem bleak.

"Binkolele" fails to live up to the hype and is undoubtedly a disappointment for Kataleya & Kandle's eager followers. With a fragmented structure, lack of compelling verses, and an unremarkable hook, the single barely scrapes by with a 3/10 rating. The duo will need to reevaluate their approach and deliver a more refined and thoughtfully crafted sound in their upcoming EP if they hope to regain the confidence of their loyal audience after this massive let-down.
