Random thoughts from the first listen of course.
Disclaimer: Can't be objective at all since I've got a special love for EP 1 since it was a HUGE DEAL for us Latin Fans, we waited so long for this and I feel it's like our 2nd child.
Pa' mis Muchachas, Santo, Ya llegué still owns my heart,.I'm not into collaborations when it comes to Queen's EP/discography, but I do have to say they were 100% ON POINT.
THE GOOD:
- I loved this EP so much way more than "La Fuerza" but I'm not sure if "La Tormenta" is better or superior.
- "Sueltame" it's a BOP, I loved how sultry, fresh it sounded, great choice for a first lead single.
- Mid-tempo songs were on point, all of them are FIRE. No dislikes, no fillers IMO.
- Traguito, Brujería, Te Deseo lo Mejor = VIBES
- Her voice and vocals = HEAVEN. I'm pretty sure Non -hardcore*fans would recognize Queen's voice at first listen. You know it's CHRISTINA AGUILERA singing!
- This EP brings so much fun in terms of sounds and quality, You can tell Queen enjoyed the process at the most.
- I enjoyed a lot of current tracks AT FIRST LISTEN than EP 1 ("Como Yo" or "Ya Llegué" were definetly a grower at first listen, I still fucking love both of them).
- I love the fact ballads weren't included in this EP, In my opinion, "Somos Nada" ruined the "atmosphere" in EP1 (Not in the middle of the EP, smh).
- The style and sound of this album are amazing, they don't sound outdated or stuff like that, and I'm glad she didn't go into "full reggaeton" either.
THE "NOT SO GOOD":
- I believe "La Fuerza" is superior in terms of tracks or collaborations compared to EP 2, sounds more cohesive in terms of songs or "storyline".
- I never heard of Tini before, juding from "Sueltame" she is not my cup of tea (or I maybe I have to accept I wanted another girl for a collab/lead single)
- I don't like how "slangs" sounds on her anymore, like "Pegao' , Zafao' Saliera', Quiero ma'. I'm not feeling them anymore to be honest.
- The only song I didn't feel was "Cuando Me de la Gana", don't get me wrong but I don't think there was a need to add another Ranchera song, La Reina it's more than enough for an EP (Which I love until today but I overplayed a lot lol).
- I missed another collab tbh, Lloras por Na' as a 6th song wouldn't hurt at all, hope it'll included in EP3.
