Track review: Elliott's "Fight For Love"

The “funky white boy” known as Elliott Yamin has returned to the scene with his latest single “Fight For Love.” The single will lead off his sophomore effort by the same title, due out May 5.

Picking up where he left off with the massive hit “Wait For You,” Yamin lends his soulful vocals to a highly stylized track full of meticulously crafted synths and a current-sounding beat configuration. Although the lyrics border on being very cheesy and almost make the song sound like it would be more suitable for David Archuleta, Yamin is able to make the song sound more mature.

Putting aside the unoriginal lyrics, Elliott Yamin shows that he is much more than a one hit wonder on “Fight For Love,” and radio will be glad to have new material to play.
