Even for ultra mainstream reggaeton (which it more uniformly is compared to the diverse LP1) this is a fairly tepid effort. It does start surprisingly well, with 1 being a pretty good intro track considering the album it is the intro to, 2 being a nice slow-paced track to start with, and 3 being pretty good also albeit still not explosive - it's like reggaeton that is not made for club/party listening, which I wasn't even sure existed. 4's already a lot more generic, okay with some crnigey bits, whilst 5 is an upper okay sunset track. From here on there isn't much else to speak of; there are no hooks, little attempt to make tracks memorable, and it just all gets blurry. 7's a little bit more cringe, by the cute sunsetty 8 the album feels long already, 9 is an overlong song to get laid but without much else otherwise beside the intro, 10 has a nice discrete hook I guess but is otherwise forgettable.12 and especially 11 demonstrate tracks that are completely hollow - blueprints more than full songs almost. 14 and 15 do try to add a little more production value, which although they aren't that great offers a bit of relief. I like Fuego's contributions to 15, especially the rapped bits, but the song is still too long, still corny, and ends on a fadeout as the appropriate conclusion to quite a lazy opus. 2.3
