South Park Mexican - 3rd Wish to Rock the World CD

3rd Wish to Rock the World buy CD music Houston, Texas native Carlos Coy, alias South Park Mexican, creates an eclectic and ambivalent mix of dangerous, misogynist raps and pro- and anti-drug cuts (in a previous, teenage life he was a drug dealer) that are often as menacing as they are entertaining. Tracks such as "Habitual Criminal" and "I Must Be High" are hard, truthful slices of Houston gangsta life (the latter with the refrain "I know that I must be high so that I can function") that reveal the pain and the attraction of the thug lifestyle. The backing tracks here are simple and spare, serving to highlight some incisive lyrics ("everybody knows that my back is not dry, if you say it is you are just a damn lie," from "Mexican Radio"). Though many of the raps cover familiar ground, cuts such as the apocalyptic opener "Screens Falling" and the aforementioned caustic "Mexican Radio" make NEVER CHANGE worth the price of admission.

3rd Wish to Rock the World songs South Park Mexican's first major album and a document of life in Houston's ghettos, Hustle Town is the Mexican-American's most rugged album, full of hunger and ambition, even if it is a bit lacking in terms of both production and polished rapping. Subsequent SPM albums improve upon these areas yet, unfortunately, also lose a bit of this album's enthusiasm. A cult favorite. ~ Jason Birchmeier Personnel: South Park Mexican (rap vocals); Robin, Sonja Otero (vocals); Grinch, Low-G, Rasheed, Pimpstress (rap vocals).

3rd Wish to Rock the World album for sale Carlos Coy's follow-up to 2001's NEVER CHANGE is harder and meaner than its predecessor, almost as if the South Park Mexican had decided to circle the wagons and forget all about trying to court popularity outside his immediate Houston circle. He's still at his best when he's trying to combine R&B with Hispanic and Caribbean influences, such as on the infernally catchy "Suckaz and Hataz," and "Lord Loco's Melody." This combination has a charm all its own, but on this outing Coy is mostly more than happy to stick to his chosen turf--drugs, guns and hoes, all set to the barest of backbeats and the sparsest of instrumentation. NEVER CHANGE showed that lurking somewhere inside SPM's cool macho interior is a wellspring of creativity, and if REVEILLE PARK finds him resting on his laurels somewhat, he's still a block or two ahead of many of his contemporaries. K0lbum. Most of the lyrics on this album were not written. SPM shouts out lyrics right off the top of his head. A form of artistic rapping that first became popular by artist like Yungstar, Lil Flip and other members of the Screwed Up Click (S.U.C.). Fans seemed to like this form of rapping because it gives them a chance to hear exactly what is on the artist mind at that very second. Many of the instrumentals on this album were produced by SPM. Hot tracks include Screwed Up Tape, Red Beans And Rice, and I Need A Sweet featuring SPM, Powda,and Baby Beesh. "Cool Enough" featuring SPM and JC is probably the most radio friendly track. The album is very real. Giving a true insight to what SPM is about, where he is from and how he views life in general. This is an example of the Southern Rap "screwed" mix style. Producers include: SPM, Uchei, Lord Loco, Shadow Ramirez. Personnel: Filero (scratches). Audio Mixer: James Hoover. Recording information: Dallas Concert.

3rd Wish to Rock the World CD music For his first album under his distribution deal with Universal Records, South Park Mexican seems quite comfortable with his increasing popularity, rapping like a veteran here. It's nice to hear him handling most of the album's rapping duties after his previous release, The Purity Album, seemed more like a compilation issued under his name. The production is a bit more polished here than on previous SPM albums, and the rhymes flow much more fluidly than ever before, making it arguably the most well-crafted SPM album to date. If there is one major problem, though, it involves SPM's level of comfort -- he almost seems too comfy here, knowing that he's finally crossed over into major label territory. One somewhat misses the inspired efforts of older, rawer albums such as Hustle Town. ~ Jason Birchmeier Explicit Lyrics;Aka Spm Engineers: Shadow Ramirez, James Hoover, "Big Bert" Trevino.

3rd Wish to Rock the World buy CD music The album that broke South Park Mexican out of the South, Power Moves features a number of his best-known songs: "Holla at Cha Later," "Illegal Amigos," and "West Coast, Gulf Coast, East Coast." It's definitely a more polished and crafted work that his preceding Hustle Town and proves that rap artists can thrive without major-label support. In sum, this is arguably the best place to start when investigating SPM. His later albums are often on par with Power Moves in terms of both rhymes and beats, but none capture the essence of what makes this particular artist so alluring to his cult audience as this breakthrough album. Later albums such as 3rd Wish to Rock the World often go out of their way to feature lackluster guest rappers as well. As a bonus, Power Moves also comes with a second disc that features screwed and chopped versions of many of the album's best songs, as well as his first big hit, "Mary-Go-Round," originally featured on Hustle Town. ~ Jason Birchmeier Guest Include Dope E,Kid Frost Most Hated,Icey Hott This is an example of the Southern Rap "screwed" mix style.
