    Pros: THE WHOLE CD

    Cons: THERE ARE NONE

    THIS CD IS AWESOME!!! i CAN LITERALLY LISTEN TO THE WHOLE CD FROM BEGINNING TO END AND I'M NOT SPANISH. I UNDERSTAND IT THOUGH. THE LYRICS HAVE MEANING, THERE IS NOT A WORD IN DISRESPECT TO WOMEN AS IS SO COMMON IN TODAY'S MUSIC. ALSO THE BEA...TS ARE MAGNIFICENT. YOU DON'T EVER FEEL LIKE YOU'RE LISTENING TO ONE OF THE OTEHR SONGS JUST WITH DIFFERENT WORDS ALL OF THEM ARE ORIGINALS. AND OF COURSE WHAT MAKES IT GO THROUGH THE ROOF OF COURSE IS ELVIS CRESPO'S UNIQUE AND BEAUTIFUL VOICE. YOU'LL FALL IN LOVE WITH HIM AND THIS CD AS EACH SONG PLAYS Read more Less

    This is an excellent cd. Their are some good numbers on this cd. Very good musical variation. Without doubt one of the best merengue cd's I ever heard.

Pro Reviews: Urbano

  • All Music Guide

    Former Grupo Mania member and a solo artist since 1998, Elvis Crespo delivers a well-crafted 11-track record. Urbano opens with a stylized merengue called "La Cerveza" and then moves into the catchy, tropical-inflected "A Medias" and the album's first single, "Bandida," performed with Puerto Rican rapper Tempo. Urbano features a merengue version of the Latin pop song "Bésame en la Boca," previously released by Spaniard Lorca (born José Alfonso Lorca) on his 2001 self-titled album. It also features an unplugged version of "Como Fingir" and "Señora Tambora," recorded with Dominican Sergio Vargas.
