It’s been awhile since we’ve heard from Fantasy Boys, but they made their mark on 2024 with a very fun summery EP promoted with an excellent title track. Nearly a year later, they’re back with a very different sound. Undeniable is darker and groovier, but as with many boy group songs of this nature its individual pieces are hit or miss.
Undeniable is supported by a catchy acapella vocal riff that forges its main rhythmic backbone. This is a fun touch that instantly gives the song its own identity. In another world, the songwriters might have found a way to craft an equally compelling structure around this loop. Instead, Undeniable quickly segues into the kind of shouty boy group rap that tends to sound the same no matter who’s performing it. This verse gives way to a series of contrasting melodies that move from dramatic to slinky at the whim of the instrumental.
A dynamic bridge injects a jolt of intensity late in the track, but overall I feel like I should love Undeniable more than I do. Despite a few unique touches, the track simply chugs along as expected. This makes for a pleasant — but somewhat unexciting — listen.

The vocoder / mellodyne hook is great! The chorus is intriguing. Then there are the verses which are shouty, again, alas.

The “catchy acapella riff” almost makes this unlistenable to me… especially when combined with the random boioioioing sound in the instrumental… just too distracting. I hate repetitive noises, maybe it’s just my misophonia… It’s a shame because I was tuned in for Fanbo after seeing half of the group on survival shows in the past few months. But I’m happy if other people like this track more than I do, they’re in a good position to pick up traction.

I did not watch the show they came out of, and I don’t even know any of the members, but I know that I’ve liked absolutely every song they have promoted since debut. This one is no exception. I find it interesting and listenable. 8.5/10

Just snap off that peculiar introductory bit that makes me think I’m about to watch a Harry Potter movie.
