Baby Bash and Frankie J — the duo famous for creating the hit ‘Suga Suga’, have announced a joint album titled Sangria.
The duo have worked together for years, most famously delivering the popular song ‘Suga Suga‘ in 2003, which reached the Top 20 in ten different countries, including peaking at #7 on the Billboard Hot 100. Since then, the artists of Mexican origin have put out several songs together, giving hope to fans that one day they will join forces for a full length effort.
Sangria, which Baby Bash describes as a “saucy Spanglish album for the lovers, dreamers, and people with great vibes,” will hit stores on October 20th. It will feature guest appearances from Kap G, Paula DeAnda and more. Along with the album announcement and option for pre-order, the duo has also dropped a G-Funk inspired first single ‘Candy Coated Dreamer’ which you can stream below.
The album also looks to challenge the defined boundaries of Latin music and Hip-Hop, according to the press release. “I think the biggest misconception of Mexican-American music is that you must do one or the other,” Frankie J says. “You can’t do both. You can’t do Mexican music unless you speak perfect Spanish. And you can’t do American music, unless you speak perfect English. But I say, this has all to do with faulty thinking. It’s ignorance on people’s behalf. I was born in Tijuana, Baja California Mexico. And I was raised in the US. And I’ve done very well on both sides of the fence.”
