After his much-publicized breakup with longtime creative partner A.B. Quintanilla, with whom he'd launched the phenomenally successful Kumbia Kings nearly a decade ago, Cruz Martínez releases his debut as a solo bandleader. Although Martínez has the rights to the Kumbia Kings name, he's chosen to call his group Los Super Reyes on this first album. But the sound of the troupe remains linked to the Kumbia Kings in its mix of Mexican cumbia with abundant doses of funk, some R&B and pop, as well as a few English tracks. The selling points are soulful ballads and fast-paced, disco-ish cumbias like first single "Muévelo," an easy club hit with Middle Eastern strains. But those looking for a clear departure or a brand-new sound aren't going to find it here. —Leila Cobo
