“The futuristic R&B band deliver a funk-fueled ballad [with ‘Fall in Love’] – USA TODAY
“…[Doin’ It is] a vibrant, horn-blasting, dirty bass funk-popping blast of throwback R&B charm…” - MTV Buzzworthy
“Bad Rabbits have put together a bruiser of a record built on dirty grooves and nasty habits. Vocalist Fredua “Dua” Boakye growls with hard rock grit on “We Can Roll” but earns his keep with a piercing falsetto straight out of the Prince playbook. His approach is high-flying, shooting straight for the rafters.” – Boston Globe
