2.0 out of 5 stars Tribute??, September 4, 2006

By	Joan C. Frank (Silver Spring, MD USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I am more than a little confused about this one. I thought tributes were either done posthumously or after a long and successful career. Ruben is very talented, but since he is living and is just starting his career.....

The artists on this CD are among the more talented American Idol participants. However, why was it released under the guise of a "tribute?" It was just another way to quickly release Idol cuts and earn some fast money.

I don't see much of a reason to buy this one.

1.0 out of 5 stars A TRIBUTE?!, August 20, 2004

By	Mark - See all my reviews

Why in the world was a tribute to Ruben made? I don't like these Tribute CDs, they are sung by not-so-talented studio session singers. Avoid at all costs!

5.0 out of 5 stars Good R&B, June 16, 2004

By	Shelia Jenkins (New Orleans, La) - See all my reviews

I think the album is very good, and it pays tribute to a good
person (American Idol) the Velvet Teddy bear. Ruben deserves
this tribute. Way to go. Go Ruben
