| | Daddy Yankee Barrio Fino En Directo CD Daddy Yankee Discography of CDs
(2 Customer Reviews)
On both the live audio tracks and the live footage included on the DVD, it's clear that Daddy Yankee is a first-rate and much-loved performer (his arena-sized audiences sing along with every word). The high-energy music, which draws on dancehall rhythms, hip-hop attitude, and Latin-flavored samples and accents, is as infectious here as on any of Daddy Yankee's releases. Fans won't want to miss this key overview.
The DVD also includes special features like music videos, photos, and behind-the-scenes documentary footage.
Daddy Yankee was one of the leading figures of the reggaeton movement in the mid-2000s, and this dual-disc compilation package is a testament to the Puerto Rican rapper's talent and popularity. BARRIO FINO EN DIRECTO namechecks Daddy Yankee's immensely popular BARRIO FINO album, and several tracks from that album are featured here in live concert versions. Also included on the CD are four new studio cuts, including "Gangsta Zone," with Snoop Dogg, and "Machete Reloaded," with Paul Wall. The presence of these mainstream hip-hop artists shows just how far reggaeton was able to cross over.
Personnel: Daddy Yankee (rap vocals); Lloyd Banks, Paul Wall , Snoop Dogg, Young Buck (rap vocals); DJ Urba, Lennox , Zion.
Rolling Stone (p.94) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "[A] solid stopgap from reggaeton's biggest star. The live cuts are as exciting as they were on BARRIO FINO..."

Barrio Fino En Directo
$11.49 When Daddy Yankee's BARRIO FINO broke out in a big way near the end of 2004, many assumed it was the debut for one of reggaeton's rising stars. Although Yankee spent some of his formative years in New York City, the hometown of his namesake baseball team, it wasn't until BARRIO FINO that he got wide exposure in the United States. In the wake of this success, Universal picked up his earlier release, the excellent LOS HOMERUN-ES.
As he grew up amidst the NYC hip-hop scene (in fact, Nas gave him one of his earliest breaks), Daddy Yankee, not surprisingly, stresses the rap aspect of reggaeton. The infectious hook of the opening track, "Intro/Segurosqui," could fit in on a Lil Jon song (Yankee would later collaborate with the crunk king) and hints at Yankee's unrestrained live energy. Yankee exhibits a fierceness on "Flow Gangsteril," ...

$12.25 When 2004's BARRIO FINO became one of reggaeton's best selling albums, and one of the genre's defining documents, Daddy Yankee was elevated to iconic status. That status was helped by the release of BARRIO FINO EN DIRECTO, a set of live recordings, videos, and new singles released in 2005, but fans had to wait until 2007 for a new studio album.

$18.99 "Exuberant and rhythmic, somehow both wild and innocent, delivered with captivating melodic clarity and an irresistible playfulness," says The Boston Globe about Hanneke Cassel's playing. Such charismatic fiddling has brought 26-year old Hanneke Cassel many honors and awards. She is the 1997 U.S. National Scottish Fiddle Champion, she holds a Bachelor of Music in Violin Performance from Berklee College of Music, and she has performed and taught across the U.S., Scotland, Sweden, and Austria.In addition to her solo act, Hanneke plays fiddle for the Cathie Ryan Band, and is a member of Boston-based fiddle bands Childsplay and Halali. She has made guest appearances with Cherish the Ladies, Alasdair Fraser, Matt Glaser and the Wayfaring Strangers, Ensemble Galilei, Aine Minogue, and Joey McIntyre (from New Kids on the Block). Her fiddling has graced the stages of Boston's Symphony Hall (opening for Judy Collins), Mountain Stage, The Plaza Hotel, Lincoln Center, the Boston Hatch Shell, and the Kennedy Center Millennium Stage. Native of Port Orford, Oregon, Hanneke started playing classical violin when she was 8-years old. She met Portland-based fiddler Carol Ann Wheeler when she was 10 at an Texas-style fiddle contest. She soon quit classical, started taking fiddle lessons with Carol Ann, and began competing in contests throughout the Northwest. A few years later, Carol Ann encouraged Hanneke to learn some Scottish tunes. In 1991, Hanneke entered the Columbia-Pacific Scottish Fiddle Contest in Portland. She won the Jr. contest and went on a year later to capture the U.S. National Scottish Jr. Championship in New Hampshire. With this honor came a scholarship to study on the Isle of Skye, Scotland with the renowned Scottish fiddler Alasdair Fraser and Cape Breton master Buddy MacMaster. These two quickly became her fiddle heroes and continue to inspire her music to this day. Hanneke's interest in and exuberance for fiddling is definitely a product of the ever-increasing presence of fiddle camps across the globe. The summers of her teen years were spent between Scotland, ...
