Det lyder labert og lige efter r&b-bogen på den nye debutskive fra amerikanske August Alsina. En tatoveret, veltrænet torso og et kønt ansigt kan tit være nok i denne branche, men Augusts smørtenor, melodierne og teksterne om kærlighed og sex (som den nigger, han nu engang mener, han er), vil gå lige i hjertekulen på mangen en teenagepige. August udkommer worldwide på Def Jam, så bid spids på, at vi kommmer til at høre mere fra ham herhjemme. For fans af Burhan G, Usher m.fl.

"Throughout, Alsina is joined by the likes of Young Jeezy, Pusha T, Fabolous, and Rick Ross, and though he's a natural match with most of them, he could have carried the whole album on his own with ease. This is a gratifying second step from one of the most exciting contemporary R&B artists to appear during the 2010s".

"If Testimony has one set back, it's that the album lacks a sense of thrill. A few songs on the album seem to drag on at times, and even begin to sound repetitious. This is good and bad. As a whole, Testimony is a well sequenced project that has little to no air pockets. There aren't any tracks that sound out of place, which is nice, but the boundaries aren't necessarily pushed".
