If you liked La Holla You'll love La Malaria., July 13, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Original Sin Copia (Audio CD)
Nelson "De la Holla" Mendoza has done it again. This album is great. The production is excellent and the mambos are going to make you wanna dance till your feet hurt. The engineers in this album did a much improved job when mixing this album than the previous album. The sound is a lot better and you can pump this album a get a great sound. The Lyrics are very funny and entertaining. In the track "Donde estan" Nelson proves he is not afraid of any merenguero when he mocks other groups and lets them know who's the man. Another track that resembles his mastrery of merengue is "La Malaria" this track proves that he is very consistent with his albums and keeps the tradition of him coming up with a track that is funny and makes fun of his misfortunes. In "Rompe Hueso" Nelson goes the Hermanos Rosarios route by showing that he also has swing and he really got it off. Some groups which I'm not gonna name should pay attention to that and learn. Other good tracks which you'll like are "Salchichon", "Mambo y Coro", "Los Bagos", "Guillao de Loco", and "La Pela". This album is very good and it should be a must have. Nelson Mendoza really proves that he is original y sin copia. For some people that think he is un mal agradecio, que cojan esta pelota a mano pela'.

Alerta Merengueros! Llego el Descucharado!!!, July 13, 1999

What else could be said about Nelson Mendoza. With his third LP (and first with MP), the guy has talent and skills. The first promo, "Donde Estan", is for all those wack Merengueros who think they have mambo (he should've made exceptions with a few who he mentioned). Also "Malaria", "La Pela", "Esto es Pa'goza", and the others are great with lyrics and production you can listen to over and over. A special mention goes to the song, "Salchichon". This song reminds me of my youth when I started nagging for some "Salchichon" and nothing else. Nelson de la Olla is the "King" of Merengue Callejero because he talks about everyday life in his songs. Este Cd viene duro con TKO! Cojan Maaaaammmmmbbbbbooo!
