Cabas - "Increible"

[kinglouiexviii]

2nd single from his most recent album PURO CABAS. I have to say this is a HUGE improvement of the crappy 1st single, "la cadena de oro."

This is such a cool, chill out song. I still don't understand why Cabas isn't such a bigger star. He's certainly a lot better than his more popular clone, Fonseca (if I hear "te mando flores" one more time I'm gonna shoot somebody!!).

I still say Emi-Latin should have released "chiles rellenos" as a single. That was the real hit on the album. Anyway, here's the link to the video for "increible":

Oh, more people should listen to songs like these. And I like the Fonseca song by the way.

What genre is he exactly? Tropical?

I don't know!

I think that's the reason why he is not as popular as he should be b/c he doesn't really fit into a perfect little box like record companies would like him too. He is from Colombia and mixes "vallenato" in his music so most people considered him "the next Carlos Vives" when he first started out. But since then, he has gone all over the place mixing cumbia, tropical, rock, and funk. At last year's Latin Grammy's he was nominated for "album tropical" if I'm not mistaken.

Personally, I consider him more alternative than anything else.
Isn't this a cool, kind of different track?

Why do you say more people should listen to this type of music?

Its just another way of saying that he should be more popular. I know there's an audience for this music that has probably never heard of Cabas and they are missing out.

Yeah, they are. Oh, and he's a LOT better than Fonseca.

"Te mando flores" is soooooo overplayed and annoying. I can't believe you like that song. :o
