Vanity Wyze’s Stayed Down will immediately bury itself deeply into the minds and hearts of listeners. The introduction works well in the pop groove, while the quicker pitter-patter of the lyrical flow that enters into the equation shortly after keeps listeners firmly planted on the edges of their seats. Including Sonny King’s inimitable patois into the mix accomplishes two distinct goals. Firstly, the frenetic momentum of Stayed Down is maintained until the song rides out. Secondly, there’s enough variation between Vanity Wyze and King’s approach that listeners will assuredly keep the song on high replay throughout the summer.
