Binding: Audio CDBrand: DADDY YANKEE EAN: 0602517335707 Format: Explicit Lyrics Label: Interscope Records Manufacturer: Interscope Records MPN: 602517335707 Number Of Discs: 1 Publisher: Interscope Records Release Date: June 05, 2007 Studio: Interscope Records Editorial Review: Product Description: No Description Available No Track Information Available Media Type: CD Artist: DADDY YANKEE Title: EL CARTEL: THE BIG BOSS Street Release Date: 06/05/2007 Genre: LATIN RAP Amazon.com: If the reggaeton revolution slowed for a second and you're not sure why, consider the comings and goings of Daddy Yankee: Three years have passed since he lit a Latino fire under the non-Latino world with "Gasolina," and despite the best efforts of vast clusters of tough-talking, body-rocking followers, only he, apparently, can keep it stoked. El Cartel: The Big Boss is a 21-track thrill ride destined to restore reggaeton's lost luster. The first few minutes creak--as intros go, "Jefe" is on the longwinded side--but from there it's a riot of bump-bumps, nemesis-bashing, and quick-tongued braggadocio. All credit to DY for again climbing atop a swirling mass of beats and remembering to swagger appealingly on the way up, but the small army of producers and friends who line up to pay the big boss respects on this disc also deserve their props: Fergie makes an impact on the Scott Storch-produced "Impacto" without forcing it in an overly mainstream direction, "Papi Lover" with Pussycat Doll Nicole Sherzinger busts out a cool bhangra-ragga vibe, and Will.i.am winds up "Plane to PR," a slight but contagious ode to Caribbean senoritas, tight. --Tammy La Gorce Average Rating:
![]() Rating: - Very commercial and no "Barrio Fino-Feeling"This record sounds like an R-n-B or pop album. Songs like gasolina.... are missing totally. When Barrio Fino is too hard for you and you like Black eyed Pees and Jagged Edge this album is for you. People who love Barrio Fino, Los Homerun-es and hard reggaeton should be warned!!!! Even Tito El Bambinos Albums are tougher than this one! Rating: - Thermo nuclear soundif you like heavy Bass coupled to a fantastic background melody then this CD is for you. There is hardly any filler material at all; pure USDA choice music. ENERGY is crammed into every groove.... Rating: - basura!!!!!!!!!!!!! no lo compres!!!!!definitivamente este disco es una basura despues de tanto tiempo sin lanzar una nueva produccion discografica Daddy Yankee nos trae este CD cual no es ni la mitad de lo ke se esperaba de el. el disco solo tiene 2 canciones buenas y son la de ella me levanto y la ke tiene con Akon mas nada el resto es mas de lo mismo y pensar ke con este disco ia a revolucionar el regeaton pues se le hundio el barco a su disco. me da lastima de ke el como artista no pueda hacer algo bien buena musica ...

But I have to admit, Daddy Yankee is expanding himself to success, boricua, be proud that hes working his way to the top and very proud of his roots, he talks about being boricua almost in every song, as also does speaking spanish. Just because hes making his way in the states it doesn't mean hes gone bad, hes giving his roots a reason to follow him and be proud. Great album, cool lyrics, awesome beats, totally worth the buy!!!! Rating: - Good album, inconsistent in production values, a bit too longBest to review it, track by track. Jefe - What is this, Hammer revisited? As an opener, it sucks. It is not a bad track, though. En Sus Marcas - nice beat, difficult to understand at times; somehow this is Rompe, Revisited. Cambio - clever use of rhyme and lyrics, slightly bachateao, so to speak. Fuera de Control - identity crisis... would have taken the dembow away and leave as a straight hip-hop track. Impacto - first installment, again, ... Read More |
