Bee cooks up a classic

Bee Peerapat
Medium Rare
Warner Music

Soulful singerBee Peerapat has a unique style, and his albums never let listeners down. For his second solo album, Medium Rare, Bee produced and wrote the lyrics and melodies for many of the songs. While Bee's last album Dedicated to Love was basically pop music with soul and R&B flavours, Medium Rare combines strong beats and a cool rock style on tracks like "Change" and "Pom Kreng Jai (I'm Concerned About Him)."

Though many of the songs on Medium Rare are about love, they're all well written with beautiful and intriguing lyrics.Bee can sing well in any tempo or rhythm, but his sweet and soulful voice works particularly well with love songs like the heartbreaking "Nam Yod Diew (One Drop)" and the romantic "Khao Khong Krueang Chai (House Ware)" and "Crazy."

Medium Rare is one of the best new pop albums in recent times. It's well worth buying for listeners who love great music. - SC
