Ely Guerra

Sweet and Sour, Hot y Spicy (Higher Octave)

On the heels of Tijuana's Julieta Venegas' alt-pop smash hit and Latin Grammy winner comes yet another Mexican norteña that should make as much noise. Monterrey-born Ely Guerra's fourth album is truthful to its name. It has a strong pop element during the "sweet and sour" segment (the first six songs); and as delicate, ethereal, and sensual as you can get in a country as machista as Mexico when she shows off her "hot and spicy" sides. At 32, Guerra finally understands that beauty does not go against quality. -- Javier Andrade
