    "By now, you know how fond I am of the new jazz-groove style emerging from artists like Robert Glasper, Esperanza Spalding and others. The style is digital-savvy and reaches backward to the '70s and integrates the soul feel with current sounds to create dynamic textures. Add to the list Yeah, a German band. On The Challenge, an action-packed album, Yeah fuses a big beat, horns, organ, Fender Rhodes, a synthesizer, a rubbery bass, wah-wah guitar, scratching, samples, programmed riffs and more. It's Tower of Power meets Les McCann meets Roy Ayers. I can't stop listening to it." - Mark Myers (The Wall Street Journal / Jazzwax.com)
