On my fifth listen and this album is truly amazing. The way Tangana,who by the way is Rosalias ex boyfriend and supposedly if people from the internet are to be believed some of the lyrics allude to, fused so many elements of Spaniard music with other genres is truly amazing. I mean this album was able to cohesively have rock, flamenco, reggaeton, salsa, R&B, Corridos, and Funk Carioca and make it so accessible. Really a masterpiece

Despite trying to fuse so many traditions with so many prestigious names, the tone is pretty consistent. My first impression is that not everything sticks together and the songs are a little bit unformed, but I still find it overall pleasant.

I missed this thread. Started listening to Tangana in late 2021 & just posted about him at that time on the Rolling Latinx reggaeton, Lat in Jazz , Urbano thread
