It's impossible to keep a great band--namely the Kumbia Kings--down. A.B. Quintanilla III's bilingual outfit has undergone major line-up changes (including the addition of Chris Perez as a guitarist) and still struggles with an often-distracting, ghetto-fabulous image. But Fuego, the Kings' fourth proper studio album, is a thoroughly enjoyable listening experience, proffering an enticing recipe of cumbia, hip-hop and R&B rhythms. As is now custom, the Kings include a couple of topsy-turvy remakes, including Musical Youth's 1983 smash, "Pass the Dutchie," and "Ella Sabe," a psychedelic rendition of Steely Dan's "Do It Again." There's also a clever sampling of the classic club ditty "The Roof is On Fire" during the title track. High-profile guests, including Noel from Sin Bandera and teen singer Belinda, also add to the glitter. But it's ultimately the Kings' innovative sound that remains front-and-center on standout tracks "Viento" and "Ay Amor." --Joey Guerra

Summary: Woo-hoo! 2007-03-11
Comment: I actually only bought this for the Chiquilla song. I have enjoyed the entire CD. I didn't know much about Kumbia Kings, and wasn't familiar with their R&B style singing. Awesome! Really smooth and hip. I look forward to adding more of their albums to my playlist. Didn't like "Pass the Dutchie" though. Wasn't Pee Wee underaged at the time to be singing about that?

Summary: I love this Album to bits, Literally! 2005-05-18
Comment: Gosh, i've never laughed so much in my life, then after hearing this cd!, The Kumbia Kings should be comedians, their music is amazing, and their video for "SSSSHH" is inspiring, i have never seen such effective use of a budget for a video, the 'matrix' bit was groundbreaking, when the 'singer' was dragged diagonally across the floor. I'm so glad Frankie J left the group, lord knows what kind of damage would have occurred to his musical career and reputation had he stayed in the group for any longer. So when my wife bought the album for me, i tried to listen to it, but was in such hysterics i forgot to turn off the oven, which burned down our kitchen, suffice to say our relationship has never recovered. This album was the sole reason for the failure of my marriage, so next time you listeners listent to the dodgy beats, look out for you appliances
