Meneaito Vol II

Not Great, but worth a listen

     

I love El Meneaito, and was curious how Gaby could possibly top it with a new album. He could not! Unfortunately, the best track on the CD was El Meneaito II, which was a new remix by Big Daddy G. for the album. I liked Meneaito Asi, and A Bailar as well as Menealoito. However, the lyrics become repetitive in the other songs. It is almost as if Gaby had absolutely nothing to say, so he kept repeating "Renato, Jam & Suppose, and Reggae Sam in his lyrics alongs with a list of countries. I regret to say that Gaby is a "one hit" Artist, but what a hit! It is sad that he did not have the foresight to create something really special for his first full album effort. Are there some songs worth downloading on this album......... Yes! Is the album as good as it could have been........... No. I wish I could give it 5 stars, and a wonderous review, but I would never want to mislead my fellow Meneaito fans.

Take a listen to this CD, and if you hear something you like, download it, but I cannot honestly recommend downloading the entire album. Although some folks just might enjoy most or all the songs.

They included a duet with Kathy and Gaby (Kathy Phillips is all grown up now, and just did a duet with Rev Run on It's Tricky (a new remix from Big Daddy G.)- It is great! You can download it here on iTunes- It is called It's Tricky "Big Daddy G. Mix".
