"Pilar started her career in the early 90's with a group called "Garibaldi" that had a big hit for a while, she's also known as an actress but her previous cd's as a solo singer really didn't do it in the international market.
But "Desahogo" (Relief) has nothing to do with it. The album is full of success. The first single "Quitame ese hombre" (Take away from me that man) became a #1 hit for several weeks in the US and other countries including Spain. The hit of the song was so big that it also charted on The Hot 100 that it's actually for songs in English. It reached #72.
"Desahogo" has been certified Platinum x2 in the US and Mexico and Platinum and Gold in other countries.Pilar's music is pop and she also sings some tropical mexican music that sounds very good on this beautiful woman."

She finally sings something worth listening to!

"Pilar Montenegro isn't the best Latin singer out there. Her albums have always had mediocre airplay and moderate success. In fact, it should be fair to say that her good looks and svelte figure have catapulted her to the top. However, Pilar has finally released a CD worth listening to. Desahogo's first single, "Quitame Ese Hombre," became the number one single in the US Latin charts and in various Latin countries. The flawless production and catchy tunes have turned this album into one of my favorites. As previously mentioned, Pilar Montenegro isn't the most talented singer out there, but I shall continue to buy her CDs if she carries on releasing classics-in-the-making."

Pilar is good for Music

"Pilar making this CD is the equivalent to J. LO making her cd's. Neither of them have the best voices but both produce well balanced music which can be listened to easily without having to dig to DEEP. When she sings Quitame Ese Hombre we can feel her passion and her pain. Any mujer who just broke up with her hombre be careful listening to this song, it is a tearjerker. In addition, this cd for Pilar brings her to a much older more mainstream market than some of her earlier work. As a result, this cd encompasses a much larger audience thus resulting in more a balanced album. Overall, a good album with a very promising future for Pilar."
