ECHO - a repetition of sound produced by the reflection of sound waves from a wall, a mountain … This Boricua (Puerto Rican) producer Paul Irizarry a.k.a. Echo, has done just that, produced sound waves around the world. I found it curious that this three time Latin Grammy Award winner, (best producer and engineer for Vico C's (EMI Int'l) album "En Honor a la Verdad" and for Daddy Yankee's (UMG) 2004 multi-platinum album "Barrio Fino"), a ten year vet of the Reggaeton / Latin Hip-Hop game was just now becoming press friendly. DM - Why become visible now? ECHO – I wanted my success to speak for itself. I’m also a very skeptical person; I can’t depend on others to give me my due credit.” He also pointed something out that is so true and so sad “In the Latin market, they don’t respect producers like in the American market. In the Angelo market they recognize the importance of a good producer for the success of any artist. Latinos? They see long hours away from our family and all of our personal scarifies to produce them a hot track as our duty. They really need to start recognizing” Amen to that nene!

The Feng Shui of The Big Boss! By Deborah Magdalena Feng Shui is the ancient Chinese practice of placement and arrangement of space to achieve harmony with the environment. A rainstorm serenaded a gathering, while burning sandalwood incense caressed the air. Merlot wine was consumed, along with a multigrain based dinner. Giggles were shared as Feng Shui Mistress Nadya helped the Samas rebalance their home and lives, all came to a screeching halt with a loud squeal, “Oh My God – I’m gonna Die! DADDY YANKEE?” That’s right, El Cangri, The Big Boss, DA! DDY! YAN! QUE! The balance of harmony went out the window, once hubby invited young Carissa, to stop by MEGA so she could meet Daddy Yankee. “Oh my God! What I’m I going to wear?” I couldn’t help but become extremely excited for her because I knew that he would meet her every expectation. I knew that his impressive balance would surprise even the sexist, certified Feng Shui Mistress. |
