5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic, February 15, 2007

John Reuben fans will certainly not be let down by his latest effort. Word of Mouth may have a seemingly short runtime but it left no room for filler. Every track is fantastic, especially the single "Word of Mouth".
As usual, the lyrics are direct and meaningful, and the sound is excellent.

Check out the animated video for Word of Mouth, as well as some of John's latest "altered reality" videos. Funny and entertaining stuff!

John Reuben shifts a little from his rap foundation with this album. It's difficult to assign to a specific music genre and tempting to say that he's experimenting here, but I don't really know what he's doing. The problem is that I'm not sure he knows what he's doing here either. His execution is off. The lyrics are still solid, but he comes across as a bit whiny and the music itself is fairly muddled. I found most of the songs to grate on my ears after awhile. And please, John, get rid of the kiddy back-up singers and never bring them back ("Universal"). "Miserable Exaggeration" is pretty good, "Word of Mouth" is ok, and the other songs are about the same. This is Reuben's first album that I haven't loved. I'd like to see him get back to what makes him shine and stand out. I'd like to see him get back in the ring and have fun. Don't give up on Reuben if this is the first album that you've heard of his.
