Review

Rebeca's American debut album, Rebelde, is a terrific showcase for her infectious energy and rich voice. She is equally capable of uptempo pop and big ballads, and Rebelde proves that she is a vocalist of enormous talent and potential that is very nearly fulfilled on this debut. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide
