Hip Hop Hoodios "Havana Nagila" Music Video
"Best Of" with 5 new tracks from Latino-Jewish urban collective with members of Ozomatli, The Klezmatics, Santana, Delinquent Habits, The Pinker Tones & Los Abandoned.
Previous album Viva la Guantanamera hit # 9 on the iTunes Latino sales chart and #1 overall on eMusic.
The media-savvy band has a solid fan base in hipster, Latin, and Jewish music circles, having sold 5,000 copies of their debut EP Raza Hoodia independently.
"Cameos from members of Jaguares, Santana, and The Klezmatics help make the socially conscious anti-corporate playa-hating of Hip Hop Hoodíos funnier than any Beastie Boys punch lines." — Village Voice
"Latin alternative was already scrambling the defi nitions of musical categories, and Hip Hop Hoodíos throw in humor and ethnicity for added confusion." — New York Times
"This Latino-Jewish rap duo's stew of klezmer, pop-hop, and rock en español is meatier than its gimmicky aroma would suggest … combines lithe Latin dance and the sharp hooks of radio rock with elastic Spanish rhymes and Dr. Dre-baiting jokes. Finally, a rap group whose only beef is with pork." — Blender
