Career
[edit]In 2012, he participated in the second season of The Voice Kids.[1], but didn't get past the "Battle-round". In 2015, he was a candidate in the fourth season of De beste singer-songwriter in which he became the runner up in the finals[2] against Anna Rune.
On May 22, 2015, Ruben Annink appeared as a guest, with Ali B, in the Dutch TV program De Wereld Draait Door. Here he and Ali performed the song 'Terwijl jullie nog bij me zijn',[3] as an hommage to Ali B his kids. In 2018, Ruben Annink left his record label Trifecta and joined Warner Music Benelux.[4]
On January 25, 2016, he wrote a song about writer Pia de Jong in honor of her book called Charlotte[5] which she presented in De Wereld Draait Door. The day after he performed the song in the same program. Also in 2016 he brought out the single 'Nu of Nooit',[6] together with rapper Johnna Fraser and DJ and vlogger Monica Geuze and wrote the Dutch themesong for Angry Birds: The Movie.[7]
In February 2017, he released the song 'Twee Shots'[8] with rapper Keizer, a month later the single 'Rokjesdag'[9] followed. Later that year he released the song 'Tijdmachine'[10] with Teske De Schepper.
In the end of August 2019, Ruben appeared in the Dutch TV program Beste Zangers[11]and in early 2020 he played at Eurosonic Noorderslag. This performance was the startingpoint of a clubtour crossing through the Netherlands.[12] Unfortunately this tour was postponed because of the COVID-19 pandemic. From that point on Ruben focused on creating new songs, of which he released 'Papa'[13] and 'Dat Het Morgen Lukt'[14] for the multiple champion paralympic snowboarder Bibian Mentel who was fighting cancer. His clubtour recommenced in October 2021.
