Must have Album

"This is a must have album. Do not expect all that same old garbage you hear in all the hip-hop/rap albums: violence, sex, hoes, and pimping. This here is a masterpiece that only a talented group of musicians could put together.



The tracks and lyrics make the songs "underground". There are plenty of Spanish-raps and a good mix of bilingual tracks. Tracks such as "Pilots del Humo", "La Fogata", and "Rumor en el Aire" will definetly keep the listener tuned in to the spanish language lyris that are amongst the best I've heard in a long time. The inclusion of songs composed by the live instruments is a plus. The audio quality is top notch, and the bonus music video is beautifully produced--although it is a "low-budget" production.



On the low side, the graphics are not up to par with the music, and the music video is a bit difficult to access. Other than this, it is worth investing in it.

Sublime move over!

"A great CD of Chicano flavored rap tunes. I especially like Los Pilotos de Humo and the music video that cam along with it. I'm not normally a big rap fan, but there's some insightful and enjoyable tracks here. Check out the samples to the music- you'll be pleasantly surprised to find a non-big name group delivering the goods!"
