La Reina

Celia Cruz is/was the Queen of Salsa and after listening to most of her last CD on the road this weekend I've come to the conclusion that if I could go back in time I'd be her back up singer. I can't sing, nor do I speak Spanish other then the usual 5 phrases you should know if you're in a Spanish speaking country but I'd have figured it out. Celia Cruz was amazing and had an amazing career, I'm just sad that I didn't discover her music until after she passed away.



So if anyone reading this saw a crazy looking chick in a silver civic on 95, it was the drums. They made me do it.

The drums huh? Ohhh-kay. Really, you only discovered Celia after she passed? Very surprising... miss Cruz was big among the Haitian community...

@ Creole -- Yeah the drums will just get into your soul.

@ Luke Cage -- I know weird huh. I actually discovered her through my dad right after she died. He'd bought her special DVD/CD set.

I REALLY hope JLo does NOT try to play Celia. That would be like having Beyonce play Diana Ross. Whoops... LOL
