Freshly Squeezed: Introducing… Reuben Vincent

Published: Friday 26th Jun 2020 by That Grape Juice - Staff

Reuben Vincent may be young, but the rising star posses a talent well beyond his years.

The rapper had been making waves in the Hip-Hop sphere and quickly caught the eye and ear of 9th Wonder, who signed him to Jamla Records in 2016. Vincent’s debut mixtape ‘Myers Park, which followed a year later, was met with critical acclaim.

Now, after drumming up ample buzz with his flavorsome flow and collaborating with the likes of Rapsody, today brings with it the release of follow-up effort, EP ‘Boy Meets World.’

Speaking about his protégé, 9th Wonder said:

“Reuben is a rare breed. The ability to have a forward-thinking mind as a 19 year old,  about his concepts,  his vision,  his purpose, and the sound of his music, is uncanny.  I’m not sure in my almost 20 years being in music,  and my almost 40 years of listening to Hip-Hop,  that I’ve witnessed that. Especially now,  in the age of social media, plenty of distractions,  and influencer culture,  Reuben stands on his own two.  Sit back and watch,  and listen. You’ll see.”

Vincent wrote or co-wrote every song that appears on ‘Boy Meets World.’ He also collaborates with label mate GQ on the song ‘Expedition’ and with singer .SMITTY on ‘Watchu Say.’

While the EP may be called ‘Boy Meets World,’ it’s time the world met Ruben Vincent.
