American-Chinese singer-songwriter Khalil Fong is back with his fourth album,
Orange Moon. The Hawaiian-born artist is known for talking about love of all
kinds, be it for his fellow man on his debut Soul Man, or respect for the Earth
on his third album Wonderland.
Like Fong's sophomore release This Love, Orange Moon focuses mainly on romance
- and if his music is anything to go by, the singer has a pretty positive
outlook on relationships.
What's great about Fong is that, like his hero Stevie Wonder, his music has an
important message and manages to transcend boundaries. Altough he sings
Mandarin on nearly all the tracks, non-Chinese speakers can still apperciate
his music.
Opening track Singalongsong is a fun, catchy tune which sets the scene for the
rest of the album: Fong is said to have wanted to make this a record that easy
to sing along to.
This is followed by the infections Little Bug, the acoustic-guitar-filled,
upbeat dancey number 1234567and the jazzy, groove-driven Black & White and
Perhaps Love.
Most of the songs are upbeat, feelgood tracks but, as is required by any love
album, there are a couple of solid ballads.
If you like your vocals as smooth as honey and music you can have fun to, you
can't really go wrong with a Fong album. There's even a bouns hidden track, so
don't miss out.
