It's amazing just how naturally Rebel Souljahz transformed Justin Timberlake's "Mirrors" from an intense soul song into a mellow reggae jam, which the group just recently released. The best thing about RS's version, however, is all those gorgeous harmonies, which is precisely what the Hawaiian quartet does best anyway. In fact when they started almost a decade ago, they were an acapella group. They soon evolved into a reggae outfit with a full band backing them (and the four part harmonies remaining intact). In 2008, they released their debut album, which did well on the billboard reggae charts. It has traditional reggae grooves, a little island soul and a lot of really tender love ballads.
