"TAXI"

"Dreams" was reviewed by The World's Leading Independent A&R Company

What a great sounding vocal, song and track! This is very impressive, from the stellar production, soulful and expressive vocal and very sophisticated structural song elements. This song bodes very well for the future in terms of getting wider recognition. American Idol has nothing on you! Very contemporary overall sound, that could cross I think between traditional R&B/pop and Gospel. Not an easy bridge to cross but I think this does it. Fantastic, you should feel great about this!

"Orlando Ceaser"

"Dreams" inspires us to reach our ultimate God-given potential.
We need more inspiring songs like Dreams to challenge us and encourage us to achieve our greatness. This CD accomplishes the difficult, to ring melodiously in our ears and stir our hearts to wonder how great we can be. Extremely well done.

"Kelly O'Neil"

Everyday to-and-from work I listen to DREAMS, it is an empowering song, so dynamically, lyrically and musically written. I can see Char's heart, feel her testimony and hear her passion. I also love the back-up parts -- it really flows and SINGS wonderfully! DREAMS has that perfect cross-over message. It's really good!
- Kenosha First Assembly Of God


"Eric Powell"

If your dream has been stalled, lost or even stolen, this inspirational song can be instrumental in reviving your dreams. This is one that can be played again and again! - Stronghold Computer Services


"Felicia Thomas"

“I have known Char McAllister all of my life. Since the beginning of her music career she has always had a message of encouragement. Prior to the start of my educational career I was given the Dreams single. I didn’t realize its value until the start of my classes. There were days that I didn’t have anyone to encourage me, sometimes it was hard to encourage myself that I would get through school. I started to listen to the Dreams song everyday, sometimes all day. I would listen to it before classes, tests, and meetings with my professors. I will be graduating this December and I have consistently made the deans list. I was told that I had a ‘math disability’ while I was in grade school, that was proven to be wrong, in fact, I tutored my friends in math in college. There were times when people told me that I couldn’t do it but the lyrics to that song were enough for me to keep my focus and believe in myself. I was encouraged to quit but I held on to the word that the Lord gave Char, I believed in my dream, my dream to be an educated African American woman with goals obtained. Char sings with authority. She always has a good message in her songs that makes you feel like you can go on. She doesn’t just sing words but her message always comes from her own life experience. I am glad that she is in my life!”
