Editorial Reviews :
If Ricky Martin is the party boy of Latin crossover pop, Enrique Iglesias is more a romantic traditionalist in the mold of dad Julio. Even his uptempo, lust-driven tunes, like this album's 'Love 4 Fun' and 'One Night Stand,' are hardly the frantic sweatfests Martin provides. Escape, Iglesias's first disc since his 1999 Top 40 breakthrough, is already a guaranteed success thanks to its first single, 'Hero,' which gained attention when he performed it on the September 2001 Tribute to Heroes. Title aside, this gooey love song isn't really fitting for its adopted purpose as a post-terror anthem ('You can take my breath away'?), but one imagines that won't make much difference. Iglesias is at his best when playing a little sly, like when he appropriates Nelly's 'E.I.' chant on 'Don't Turn Off the Lights' or makes a barely veiled suggestion of what he really likes about you in the opening lines of 'She Be the One.'
Buyer Reviews :
As super-fine as his daddy ever was, his music makes me sleepy like his dad's music did in the eighties. In Miami, back when all my friends and family played Julio like some of my other friends and family played Al Green a decade before. Middle aged women freaked, whenever Enrique's Pop came on TV. I'm a Victor Manuelle, Eddie Santiago, etc.... East Coast & Caribbean sound fan. I like my ballads with a Caribbean beat.
Personally, his voice is as fragile as Madonna's, It's the 'total package' that works for artists like Enrique, Janet Jackson, Madonna- those that don't possess power voices, but have alot of 'Umph.'
Power voices like Mark Anthony's, I prefer in Spanish-for the full effect. Eric Bonet is very sexy and he has a sweet voice.
Enriques videos seem like a perpetual 'who to do' of the celebrity world. I'm only a few years older than Enrique, but I guess old enough to start looking for something deeper in music videos. but all I see is heavy sweating on my screen. I feel like the bewildered parents in that Apple Jacks commercial, when the kids respond 'We eat what we like!'.
