Sekreto Prepares For His First Single - Mas Que Hablar
Sekreto defies all the stereotypes associated with Mexican Hip-Hop. He is
neither a "G" nor a "Cholo," but rather his lyrics focus on important
matters, like family, friends and life. "En Tu Area", his debut album, comes
across as his personal gospel and is both stress relieving and
motivational with powerful messages conveyed through skilled rhyme.
Sekreto started out as a graffiti artist painting and tagging on the walls
of Gomez Palacio in Durango, Mexico and would eventually began to experiment
with Rap along with his friends, two groups named BocaH and Ce Cen Cem
(together known as Caballeros del Plan G) and with nothing more than the
release of an independent single titled 3XL on the streets of Mexico back in
2000 and in 2001 Sekreto's participation in Caballeros Del Plan G's
"Abriendo Puertas" quickly caught the attention of many in the music
industry. By 2003 he had recorded a song with Spanish Hip-Hop pioneers
Control Machete for the group's 3rd album, "Un, Dos; Bandera", putting
Sekreto's face and voice in the international spotlight. By 2005 the song
could be found on countless world compilations and was featured in the 2005
"Blockbuster Land Of The Dead".
Now with producers like Milkman, Serko Fuentes and Control Machete's Toy
Hernandez at the helm, the tracks have turned out to be both unique and
traditional in their sound, offering glimpses of real creativity. "En Tu
Area" breaks new ground in Spanish hip-hop: The albums first single, "Mas
Que Hablar", incorporates new and modern sounds while at the same time
drops songs in a Control Machete fashion like "Tu Pon El Tema" and
"Retumba". The album is an excellent mixture of hardcore showcases for his
lyrical virtuosity and ruminative, reflective Hip-Hop ballads.
"Mas Que Hablar," Sekreto's first single is without a doubt a emotion-filled
open letter to all those who live their lives passionately for their dreams.
The music video was shot by acclaimed Mexican video director Jesus "Chiva" Rodriguez,
whom has already worked with Sekreto's label mates Division Minuscula, Volovan, Horoscopos De Durango and
the Spanish Hip Hop group Cartel De Santa among many others and should start
to surface by the late February or beginning of March followed by the release of the album.
