Here's what people are saying about Steel Yourself...
"...proper crashing future-hop with sassy, soulful & brooding female vocals, thumping drums, twinkling samples & an eerie kaleidoscope of uncluttered, invigorating sound...the general vibe is SO damned fresh & crisp with a genuinely unnerving amount of pure talent & verve."- Norman Records
"An inspiring voice used to uplift, Sontiago’s rhymes and soaring singing voice get her message out to aspiring MCs, male and female alike."- URB Mazgine, Next 100
"A gifted lyricist not afraid to take on subjects like womens' rights and relationship violence."- Portland Press Herald
"she definitely has the ability to bust a rhyme with a message...With the lyrics featured in the CD sleeve, this is a breath of fresh air for those sick of the I’m-gonna-pop-a-cap-in-yo-arse gangster rap."- 100 Magazine
"Sontiago is definetly impressive and is just a plain fun listen."- RVA MAgazine
"...a well-realized album by a woman who can sing and spit...That's representative of the whole; the rapping is competent, the singing impressive."- Montreal Hour
"This album isn’t safe, it isn’t like much you’ve heard before, and it can sometimes be uncomfortably real, but it’s so damn honest..."- Portland Phoenix
