Tattooed, razor-thin urban-pop performer Chelo has Dancing With the Stars to thank for an impressive career catapult. The young singer debuted first single "Cha Cha" on the reality hoof-fest earlier this year and landed prime spots on the 2006 FIFA World Cup and at the Miss Universe Pageant. He could have easily gone the way of "Mambo No. 5" footnote Lou Bega, but Chelo offers an impressive follow-up with debut disc 360°. It's an ultra-modern, criminally catchy set of bilingual tracks that ping-pongs effortlessly between genres. Silky ballads ("Slow Motion") snuggle up against Middle Eastern-flavored hip shakers ("Voodoo") and hypnotic club tracks ("Fantasy," the flirty "Yummy"). Kick-off cut "Un Corazon" samples a classic salsa track--Willie Colon's and Hector Lavoe's "La Murga"--to artfully weave its one-love credo; and "Touch 2 Nite" rides an early '80s-inspired freestyle groove. Even better is "U Got Me," a slinky, sexy standout that seems to conjure a mix of Prince, Justin Timberlake and Marc Anthony--all at the same time. An impressive, energetic debut collection. --Joey Guerra

5.0 out of 5 stars GIVE CREDIT WHERE IS DUE: EXCELLENT ALBUM!, July 26, 2006

This review is from: 360 (Audio CD)

This past Sunday, the "Miss Universe Pageant" was on and I just happened to flip the channel when Chelo came out to perform. At first, I said "oh no another hip hop/reggaeton/fusion singer." The following day the beat/rhythm of the Chelo's song, CHA CHA kept ringing in my ears. The beat kept on vibrating in my consciousness, it was actually communicating to me. I felt compelled to buy Chelo's CD. I loved it. WOW, I was more than impressed. This man is actually a poet with SOUL!!! The rhythm of the music, the spiritual lyrics and a velvety voice, to say the least. I ALWAYS GIVE CREDIT WHERE IS DUE, CHELO, YOU ARE THE BOMB! God's time is not the same as man's time. This is your time and place to soar like an EAGLE!! I strongly recommend this cd, you will not regret it!!!!!

3.0 out of 5 stars Chelo 360 Not Bad, October 23, 2006

Chelo is an entertaining performer. 360 is a fair album with a few interesting songs. A little too plain for my tastes though. I would like to see in his future endeavors a more colorful and refreshing blend of his heritage and rap style. Not too bad a start, however. I recommend this album for anyone who can appreciate Latin rap.
