MARIA ISA : "M.I. Split Personalities"

A manifestation of her multifaceted talents and tastes, María Isa covers a wide gamut of musical genres and styles that never leave out her Latin roots, particularly in Puerto Rico's folkloric bomba ("Sabrosa"): from American R&B ("Wine and Cheap Champagne"), to tango-tinged Spanish-language hip hop ("Dicen de mí"), reggaetón ("Yo lo quiero"), soul/reggatón fusion ("No son celos") and crunk hometown anthem (MN Nice).  The result is a varied, engaging album, uniting her with stateside hip hop producers such as Benzilla, and The Goodfellas and guest MC's I Self Divine, Gitana MC, and Mavin MC, Puerto Rican hip hop artists Tek 1 and Velcro and renowned bomba singer Nellie Lebrón Robles, among others.
