i was hungry for a new CD. i'm really picky when it comes to music and choosing which CDs to purchase. anyway one day i was with my friend who happens to listen to every damn song on the radio. i don't think think there is a song he doesn't know. but not to long after we turned the radio on that i (noticed i said i) heard this song for the first time called "If you were mine". at first i thought it was Frankie J but my friend said it was Marcus Hernandez. this guy sounded good. Really good. a couple of months later i bought the CD and loved it. i was a bit sceptical about buying it first because i've previously bought some CDs (Enrique Iglesias: Escape, Chayenne: Sincero just to name a few) with only one good song and all the others are filler and later i would find myself trading them in for store credit. but not this, not soon, not ever. this guy can really sing and he's not falling in the steotype where just becuase he's latino he sings strictly mariachi or cumbia. infact, aside from "if you were mine (spanish remix)" there are no spanish songs although he does say some spanish sentences in one of his songs. i think it was "Latin Escapades". Even in the song Bailamos he mostly speak english. the CD is a mix of R&B and Pop and some songs with a latin rhythm. he makes them work really well. my favorite songs on this CD are:

IF YOU WERE MINE
LATIN ESCAPADES
ENDLESSLY: For some reason this songs sets you free. it makes me want to be a better man. i can't wait for my first girlfriend so i can sing this to her.
C ABOUT ME
GET PERSONAL
CALL ME (it sounds kinda like Play House from the boy band Pretty Ricky although i can't stand those perverts)

there's my list. not to dis all the other songs. they are great but i find myself listening to these songs more. i hope he makes many more CDs. it's such a shame that he makes music about love and passion and these teenybobbers listen to songs about well you know. i think this guy is rare and there should be more like him producing this kind of music. he can sing but watch that he won't get his due credit whereas you have some non talent vocalists wannabes (Ray Jay, Ciara, JLo) who get all the praise. The only reason I'm giving it 4 stars is because of "If you were mine (spanish remix). don't get me wrong the song isn't horrible but it's just too fast and his high notes make him sound kiddy like. i'm perfectly capable of speaking and understanding spanish but this sound just does nothing for me. MARCOS, TIENES ME APOYO AMIGO. YO DESEO QUE TO SUBE!!

Ok, so I'm from up in Wichita Falls, but I was visiting Dallas and heard an AMAZING song on the radio, "If you were mine", and knew I had to get the CD. I had high hopes, and they were definitely met.

Overall, an amazing CD ♥

When I first heard the song "If You Were Mine" on the radio, I thought 'a Frankie J wanna-be'...but I was wrong. I bought the album and listened through it and it's not bad at all. "If You Were Mine" in my opinion, isn't the strongest track off the album because there are also catchy ballads including "Endlessly", "Get Personal", "The Way I Do", "Call Me" and many others.

If you like Frankie J then you'll like listening to Marcos Hernandez's smooth, soulful voice in C About Me.

Yall check this cd. Hes gonna be really big fo real. Be the first to discover this great talent. Major buzz in dallas right now and major love from the radio stations down here.

This cd is ok @ best but... the reason I got it was bc a friend of mine loves the Spanish version of "If You Were Mine." We got the song, I'm happy, she's happy... mission accomplished ;)

I love this CD. he really can sing. he sounds like a mini Frankie J. I wonder why he wasn't more popular than he was. at least enough to make another album. the only other appearace he has made was on Baby Bash's Third CD "Cyclone" on the track "Mamacita" where Bash rapped in english and Marcos sang in Spanish. but anywhoo,

standout tracks are as follows:
Bitter Sweet
Lovely Girl
Latin Escapades
Call Me
Bailamos
C About Me
I'm Lost
Endlessly

I really do not like the single "If You Were Mine" although it show cases how great his voice is, it just doesn't do it for me lol I think it's the beat or something, anywhoo, a great CD worth the money. hopefully e will come out w/ something in the future b/c he really is talented. a duet w/ either Natalie or Paula Deanda perhaps ?

This debut CD by Marcos Hernandez is fantastic. A blend of pop, soul and R&B tracks, it is recommended for anyone enjoying these genres. I have enjoyed listening to it.

"8)If You Were Mine" - will be the reason why anyone will purchase this cd but the rest of the cd has to back it up. It does.(sort of) Overall, it's a good cd, not great. I just hope he doesn't become a one hit wonder. Here are the tracks that stand out to me:

3) Bitter Sweet
4) The Way I Do - nice slow jam
5) Best Of My Love
7) Latin Escapades
10) If I'd Known ft. MC Magic of NB Ridaz - should be his next hit!

Note to the producers: 15)If you were mine(bonus track)spanish remix - very disappointing
