but
England and Spain as well, all who are rapidly gaining
international acclaim. Alongside these upstarts are old
school legends, many of whom first ushered Latin hip-hop
culture to the mainstream over a decade ago.
The album features a number of artists on the rise or at the
height of their careers, such as Reggaeton’s Bimbo, who was
featured recently in Billboard magazine and has collaborated
extensively with renowned recording artists such as Alicia
Keys, Jay Z, Marc Anthony, India and the late Celia Cruz.
Rising star
Malverde just inked a major recording contract
and will be releasing his highly anticipated album early
next year. Southern California’s
Crooked Stilo, whose
musical origins from El Salvador, Central America, have
earned widespread popularity not only in the U.S. but in
Spain as well, showcase their unique brand of Hip-Hop tinged
with cumbia, tropical and
Reggaeton sounds. And
Midwest-based Hip-Hop group Kinto Sol, have carved out a
niche for themselves in the underground market by taking
Latin Hip-Hop back to the beginning.
Established recording artists such as Son Doobie (front man
for Funkdoobiest), Kemo the Blaxican (former member of the
Delinquent Habits), and Mellow Man Ace round up this
incredible compilation. Their exceptional performances
combine elements of the original Latin “La Raza” movement
that began in the late 1980s with today’s rhythms, grooves
and electrifying spirit.
This special edition album includes a bonus DVD that
includes four videos, exclusive artist interviews, a photo
gallery and more.
