A great album that I'm sure will be slept on. It is better than El Hombre Mas Famoso De La Tierra and Americanizao, and just about as good as El Padrino, if not better as well. From beginning to end it is just pure perfection! Trai la bulla is the song you MUST play at festivals or carnivals. Suave is just that: smooth, first GOOD reggae song that uses accordion well.Picante has that seemingly trademark Fulanito sound found in "La Novela", & "Asi Es Que Vivo Yo". Pegate is THE song of the Summer house party no doubt about it! Ricardo Gutierrez shows off in this one, and it is great! Todavia is a reggaeton/bachata produced by DJ Nelson, who is notorious in the reggaeton genre, responsible for bringing in the monsters Luny Tun & Noriega, the track is very sentimental and carries very well, especially when it climaxes into Jay "El Boricua"'s Solo vocals. Gozando vivire is that song that you will skip the first time you hear, but the second time around you'll find yourself repeating it, they used a loop of a Salsa called "El Preso" and turned it into reggaton, they honor it with a "Oye!" and a "Ay-ay-ay" here and there as homenage to the original that had those expressions. Diantre is THE theme song for this album because that's all I could say track after track, just Diantre! Its Reggaeton with more Hip Hop-like aspects to the beat, Dose "EL Morenito" makes a stand when he warns his competition that "Mis mala palabras son como balas, siempre se pegan y nunca fallan: A mi no me tire que te vas a estrallar... For real!". DIANTRE! Feliz Cumplea?os sounds like they are going back to their "740 Boyz" roots, it is a very unique love song that also has that "La Novela" Feeling, its fast paced and has lyrics that you can get drunk and sad to, aparently he celebrates his ex girlfriend's birthday even though they're not together anymore. La Verdad the title track is a slower paced merengue, a remake of Johnny Ventura's classic, with just the right touch of Fulanito goodness, very addictive track! Mala Mala, is a Fulanito perico ripiao that has classic written all over it, "Tu nunca me querias so why you want me now". Reguero de mujeres is my favorite track on the album, another perico rap, it features lyrics from Pickles "El Gordito", Dose "EL Morenito", and Danny "El Chulo" who makes a ground shaking introduction of himself. And finally Bump and rub reencarnates the Americanizao sound with a cameo by King De La Rosa who was on every other song back in the day, and produced by Winston "El Chiquito" and Dose "El Morenito", which would explain why it sounds reminiscent of "El Generalisimo". They make reference to Dose's first track "Wiggle it" from 1991 when they went by "2 in a room", the track sounds like a victory dance of a job well done, an excellent way to close an excellent album! ITS PERFECT! Buy it! And while you're at it, buy El Padrino, Americanizao, El Hombre Mas Famoso, 2 in a room's Wiggle it & World Party, and 740 Boyz self titled album! You Will love them! I DO! Two Thumbs Way, Way Up!!!

DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY!, THEY HAVE COMPLETLY JUMPED ON THE REGGEATON BANDWAGON, AND IT SOUNDS HORRIBLE, HE TRIES TO RAP, BUT IT'S OFF BEAT. SONGS LIKE FELIZ CUMPLEANOS WILL MAKE YOU CRY IT'S SO PATHETIC, I DON'T KNOW WHAT ALBUM THESE PEOPLE LISTENED TO, BUT COMING FROM DJ, THIS WILL GET NO PLAY ON MY TECHNICS. I GAVE IT ONE STAR FOR HAVING THE NERVE TO DROP THIS TRASHG

Yo no habia oido mucho de Fulanito antes de comprarme el CD. Por eso es que fue tan sorprendente cuando el CD estallo en mi casa. El problema que todos los que compren este CD van a tener es el que yo tuve, se quejo un vecino mio porque lo estaba poniendo muy alto!
El merengue y reggeaton de Fulanito tiene un sabor y energia sin igual. Mucho de eso es por tener un gran sabor con un toque de hip-hop, mezclado con su estilo ripiao(con accordeon). Gracias a este disco buen numero de argumentos he tenido yo con un amigo mio gringo por decir que el accordeon es instrumento de nerd.

DAMM I BEEN A FAN OF FULANITO'S MUSIC BECAUSE EVERYTIME THEY COME OUT WITH A CD THEY MAKE SURE WE GET OUR ASS ON DA FLOOR! THIS IS NO EXCEPTION BECAUSE THIS ALBUM BRINGS BACK THE SOUND OF FULANITO MERENGUE MIXEADO CON HIP-HOP AND WITH DA REGGAETON FLAVOR. AND THAT SONG "SUAVE" IS HOTTTTTTTTT DAMM I KEEP THAT SONG ON REPEAT CUZE IT SURE MAKES ME STAY ON DA FLOOR. IF U WANNA NOW WHY THEN BUY THE ALBUM AND TRY IT!

THIS CD WILL HAVE YOU DANCING ALL NIGHT. LOVE IT!!! DOSE, PICKLES, JAY, AND DANNY ARE BANGING.

I just recently bought Fulanito's new cd, La Verdad, and I can honestly say that they outdid themselves this time, I absolutely loved the cd, every song is great, this is their best yet. I recommend it to anyone who loves the group Fulanito.

I agree that there may be 2 or 3 tracks out of the 12 that should have been left out, however, the rest of the album is HOOOT, especially the reggaeton songs. They definatly have kept their style but managed to incorporate new rythms to this joints. Those merengue songs will have you shake your ass 'til you drop. Fulanito is back!!!!!!!!!!

Been a fan for a while. True the first album is unique
and no matter what this group pulls out of their hats,
they'll never top it . It was shear perfection and one of a kind.
Still la verdad of LA VERDAD is that it is not even worth buying as
a bootleg in a corner of Jackson Heights for $3.00.
I'm madley disappointed. I kept telling myself and others,
they've been quiet, you'll see, they'll blow all
this recent crap out the water. I especially was expecting
at least one Reggaeton anthem. MAN! What a let down.
The boys got the skills! I hope they get wind of this and try
and get the flavor back. I'll be looking out for the real FULANITO comeback, till then peace and skip this one.
