Jiggy Drama is here to stay, no if's, and's or but's about that. Talk about a debut that is out of this world!!! (No, literally, let's talk about it).
Here at fabrikalink, we have been promoting Jiggy D since uuuuuuh, probably even before he knew he was going to be an artist (ok, so I exaggerate), but we have been following his career closely. We upload his latest videos, we talked about his anticipated U.S. debut, we basically went on a Jiggy D craze, just to make sure you remember the name to the face, and I think we did our job pretty darn good.
The day we were all waiting for (I, included), finally came. Heartan L. Criado, artistically known as Jiggy Drama or Jiggy D made his impacting U.S. debut with his 17-track freshman album Nerdside. Don't let the title fool you, this has to be the coolest nerd you will EVER meet. Let me explain. His lyrics are fly, swagging', witty, and full of chispa. And the melodies that accompany these rhymes sound like a trip around the world; he experiments it all!
"La Fuga," and "El Culpable," are the two singles that let the world know Jiggy D is the real deal. "La Flaka" is also one of his first releases, and let me tell you about this flaka; she probably has some kick ass musical taste if he was inspired by Jarabe de Palo & Los Fabulosos Cadillacs. In a mixture of slick indirects and a samba interpretation, Jiggy plays a small tribute to Jarabe and Los Fabulosos. But enough about this chick, let's talk about summer, which is so ever leaving our hands, but Jiggy is not letting that happen with his "Last Summer," a track that leaves behind the rhymes and brings in the sun, the beach, and a lot of calypso!!! "Baby Girl" and "El Otro" bring in the kinky side of Jiggy. Both tracks have R&B influences and that sensual flow that no one has today (you know like that once found in 112). Infatuation, love, unfaithfulness... it doesn't matter, Jiggy D's sexy-time transformed him into Kinky D. Another appealing single is "I'm Not a Perfect Man," which with its serene reggae roots and Caribbean flow give you the tranquility and assurance of one of Jiggy's quality, he is a good friend.
They compare him to Calle 13, and I am not sure if that's a good thing or a really good thing. As he stated himself he's had "el mismo flow desde que tenia 13," and we are loving E-V-E-R-Y S-E-C-O-N-D of it!
My only advice. Get ten bucks and purchase it NOW!
