Paulina Rubio, a symbol of strength. A vibrant woman, an energetic and sensual hurricane, Paulina Rubio is already a global music icon who rejects stereotypes flowing with the wide variety of musical influences she experiences everyday.
Raised between Mexico, Los Angeles and Spain, she has always been a free spirit. Paulina started in the music business at a very young age, with the band Timbiriche, but her first solo release "LA CHICA DORADA" meant the definitive take off of her career.
Her first success did not take long : she was crowned as The Queen of Latin Pop with her 2000 album "PAULINA" , selling over 3 million records worldwide and being nominated to the Grammy Awards as Best Latin Artist in 2001.
Her North American side did no take long to surface and "BORDER GIRL" was her Anglo Saxon consolidation, showing off all the influences she experienced in life.
"PAU-LATINA" was the definitive blending result of all Paulina´s merging musical influences released in 2004. "It was a musical workshop", she admits regarding her work plenty of collaborations and experiments. A golden year for the "Golden Girl", who climbed all the way up to the peak being the top selling Latin American artist in 2004.
2006's "ANANDA" was another brilliant album. It is by far her most autobiographical work as well as the album where she most actively participated, being involved in each and every part of the creative process. "ANANDA" another hit in Paulina ´s career that achieved the platinum status in physical sales, contained Ni Una Sola Palabra (a Latin Billboard Awarded song), was a multiplatinum certificated.
2009 will see the release of her new album: "GRAN CITY POP", an imaginary mega city where Paulina gathers in one sight some her musical and life experiences happened to her in the last past years in different cities of the world.
These experiences have marked her life for ever and Paulina wishes to share them now in the shape of ten songs plenty of influences which have enriched this new stage in her career. Collaborators in the album are Estéfano, Chris Rodríguez, Cachorro López, Lester Méndez and Coti.
On Monday the 30th of March her new single CAUSA Y EFECTO will be premiered on radios worldwide, leading the release of her new album GRAN CITY POP set for June the 23rd in all the Latin American countries, USA and Spain.

Good album.,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Gran City Pop [CD/DVD] (Audio CD)
Gran city pop is the best album by Paulina Rubio. her team knows what songs to choose to be a success!
This is a different but more serious Paulina more daring in her lyrics of affection. Best songs *Causa y efecto.- The hit... *Enseñame.- fits in Paulinas voice perfectly. *Ni rosas ni juguetes.- The second megahit?? maybe *Amaneci sin ti... y me siento muy feliz. - good lyrics. *Algo de ti.- Paulina got some trance tunes in this song, very catchy. Songs I don't like. *La danza del escorpion.- I think this song is a "filler".it is between Shakira and Ricky Martin sounds. Once again, they did banda version of the mega hit Causa y efecto, to be honest, I do not think Paulina likes this kind of music, since Pau is very sophisticated. the dvd is mediocre a very few extras.It is like Ms.Rubio's husband take the sony webbie camcorder and record some?????????????? Althoug, worth the photo shoot, where paulina looks like a first-level model. after watch the dvd I realized that, there are only two photos in the album. And ,all those pics from the photo shoot, where are they?????? This album should be elected the best POP album in spanish language of the summer 2009. you do not regret buying this album. Paulina Rubio has always been a success.Le pese a quien le pese

Great pop album,
By M Cañas "mirripuy" (New York, New York United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Gran City Pop [CD/DVD] (Audio CD)
Paulina picks up right where she left off with "Ananda," developing her pop-rock sound with some nice touches of regional Mexican music, dance and electro, and a couple of ballads for variety. She may not be a skillful musician like some of her peers (e.g. Ely Guerra, Julieta Venegas) or a great dancer and entertainer (e.g. Fey) or as insightful lyrically (e.g., Sasha Sokol), but she has a great ear for a good pop song and knows how to bring it to life, and is clearly devoted to her career in music, having released more albums than most of her peers. It is great that after years of following trends and imitating international artists she has found her niche and is sitting comfortably in it, bringing us great music. It's a benefit to the pop music lover. Say what you want about her love of being in the tabloids and gossip shows and her narcissistic behavior, she is a good pop singer committed to her craft.

Gran City Pop,
By
This review is from: Gran City Pop [Deluxe] (MP3 Download)
How to start? Well when I found out the title of the disc, I should confess I thought it was not that good. But as the days went by, it did not seem that bad... Now that I finally can have this material in my hands (and iPod), I think it's a great album. And I can say that GRAN CITY POP sounds GREAT!
In general terms this album is very good, and as the name states, it contains 10 pop songs. Non the less, it is not a conventional pop beat, they have a little retro-innovative twist, that only Paulina could achieve. What do I mean? In this material you can find several 80's beats, and yet it sounds fresh. The idea of a ranchera-hawaiian song is wierd, yet it is so well integrated. All the tracks show a maturity of Paulina as an artist and a person; a strong, happy and in love woman. Definitley Gran City Pop is an album that's worth listening to.
