Love Is.....Ruben's Best
20 May 2009
Format:Audio CD
This has to be the best cd that Ruben has put out yet. His voice has never sounded better as he sings about love, romance, promise and hope. Yes he does covers here, but he does them quite well. From the cover of Extreme's "More Than Words", to Al Greene version of "For the Good Times", the Beatles " Long & Winding Road", Ruben takes these songs and masterfully wraps his silky vocals around them and make them his own.
The lead single "Together", Song For Her (written especially for his wife), and My Love Is a Rock are all very powerful songs that make you long to fall in love all over again, or at least hold on tightly to, or try to work it out with that special someone. These are not typical ballads they are all very different because with each one Ruben totally changes it up, with live instruments, brilliant producers and melodies that worked together to bring out the best in him
He then ventures into the infectious beats of the midtempo infused "How You Make Me Feel", & They Don't Make 'Em Like U No More" both songs are sure to be on constant repeat. How You Make Me Feel really reminds me of a Ne-Yo song, not that it sounds the same but a similiar thumping beat.
Finally in "Footprints in the Sand" Ruben sings about wanting to leave behind a legacy of having made a difference in this world, having left some imprint on someone's life and not just a memory that eventually fades away.
No this is not your typical R&B album, he includes his interpretations of music from different genres because that's what he felt we have been asking for. Those that love Ruben include fans that love all types of music, and this is what they finally wanted to hear from him. At least one cd where he is singing the type of music that they fell in love with him singing.
Will everyone love it--probably not, but for those of us that have yearned for Ruben to just wrap that beautiful voice around a few love songs then this one is for you.

Back to what he does best....
22 May 2009
Format:Audio CD
So glad to see Ruben is back to the songs that demonstrate his singing and musical abilities. Also happy to see he is now helping to write his own songs. "Together," "How You Make Me Feel," "My Love Is A Rock," "We've Got Love (That's Enough)" and "Footprints In The Sand" are my favorites. I have always enjoyed hearing Ruben sing, and this album is yet another progression in his career. I saw him in "Ain't Misbehavin" when it came to Austin, and was glad to see him in person. I would love to see him do a tour. I'm looking forward to more albums. The touches of Jimmi Jam and Terry Lewis are quite evident.

Beautiful
26 May 2009
Format:Audio CD
I have loved Ruben from day one when he auditioned for American Idol.
I think this is by far his best CD yet. I love all of the songs so much but my favorites are More than Words, Song for her, It's your love and We got love (That's enough). Keep it up. You are the Best!!!
