Description
John Reuben's freshman release Are We There Yet? contains the seeds of creative virtue. Intriguing the ear from the beginning, the stylized mix of drums, guitars, background vocals, and electronic textures is the source of this CD's originality. For being in his early 20s, Reuben has a lot to say. He delivers both serious and humorous commentary on the typical issues of the struggle, growth, and victory in a Christian life. The majority of this project takes on an easygoing dance style of hip-hop. Occasionally, when the subject matter requires some aggression, Reuben pushes his voice toward an in-your-face rap-core expression. But no matter what the mood is, the fun hits the roof as Reuben tears through these songs. A guest appearance on "God Is Love" by DC Talk's Toby McKeehan makes this effort a sure hit. --Israel Button
