Beautiful Voices to Match Beautiful Music

"Este CD es tan bellisima!!! Oh my gosh!! :) When I first bought this album it was because of two songs that I had heard on the radio---those 2 songs were Corazones Solitarios and No Hay Razon. Not only did I find this two salsa tunes to be full of soul, but the arrangements made me feel as though four heavenly angels had fallen from heaven--those angels being the four male vocalists from SON BY FOUR (interestingly enough, the lead singer is named Angel!! :).....anyway, I am very happy to tell you all the rest of the album did not fail to disappoint. Each cut, whether it be fast and filled with sabor (Flavor) and juice, like "Nada," which made me even more of a salsa crazed chica than I am already...he he!!! Or that intoxicatingly sensual ballad, "Si Tu No Estas"---which I played many, many times cause I just couldn't get enough of Angel's smooth crooning.....I felt intoxicated with a beautiful fusion of traditional Puerto Rican rhythms and R&B riffs!!! Buy this album and buy it now!! I guarantee you won't be able to stop dancing, singing or swooning for that matter, as SON BY FOUR carries salsa to new heights of beauty with their musical interpretations....and the last, but not least, the smooth arrangements by song writer Omar Alfanno......."
"Prepárense" To Be Blown Away !

"One of the few CDs that I like ALL tracks. Tracks are a mix of gospel and secular themes. Whatever the track, Son By Four delivers with a unique style of hip-hop salsa. It's DLG, Marc Anthony, Ritchie Rey/Bobby Cruz, Miami Sound Machine, and Tito Nieves all rolled into one. The title track "Prepárense" ("Prepare Yourselves") is particularly awesome. Great lyrics, breaks, and mixture of rhythms. I look forward to hearing future work from these guys."

"I just love the sounds on this album. I've gotten into Latin Music in a big way in the last year, mainly with Marc Anthony, Chayanne, Rubin Blades and Celia Cruz, and have only just discovered Son By Four, but this album just says it all for me. The rhythms make me want to get up and dance until I drop."
