Newcomer reubencmg comes through with thoughtful and absorbing offering ‘Yesterday’. A rapper looking to become known for his nonchalant delivery and his cerebral lyrical prowess, reubencmg uses individualistic tonality and perceptive word play to stand out from his peers. The artist possesses the ability to remain honest and authentic in his story telling, touching upon themes and passing through generic sensibilities with subtle ease.

The song is precise and piercing, with the emotional beat providing a perfect backdrop for the rappers expressive, robust delivery. The murky keys parade around the soundscape, kept acute and sane by the snappy drums. The vocal delivery is almost languid, with undertones of desperation and frustration evident as the narrator sprays a tale of love, lust and pain. The rapper presents perspective well in the writing, with the thematic content potent and focused. 

A promising offering from an artist looking to have a big 2021. He’s on the right track.
