Review:
The full-length follow-up to Hip Hop Hoodíos' acclaimed 2002 debut release 'Raza Hoodia', the new album 'Agua Pa' La Gente' was produced by Happy Sanchez (Los Mocosos) and features appearances from numerous heavy-hitters in the world of Latin alternative and Jewish music.
Los Hoodíos realized that delivering a follow-up to 'Raza Hoodia' (recently certified as the biggest selling Latino-Jewish hip-hop album of ALL TIME), would not be easy. But whereas 'Raza Hoodia' was recorded in one drunken weekend on a mere $500 budget, the new album 'Agua Pa' La Gente' was recorded on a Cirque du Soleil-sized budget over the course of FIFTY TWO drunken weekends. In other words, expect more of the trilingual mayhem you've come to love - but this time, with a sonically-enhanced psychosemitic Latin sheen that would make even a silver apple go rolling home, sighing softly.
