Quintanilla III.On his second album, Latin pop adventurer A.B. Quintanilla expands upon both the success and the approach of his first recording. While AMOR FAMILIA Y RESPETO stayed more within the confines of Latin pop, SHHH! is a rather expansive effort. Several tunes feature English lyrics, and hip-hop/R&B elements abound. There's something of a schizophrenic feel to the album, in that the Spanish-language tracks pay more attention to Quintanilla's Latin roots, while the English tunes are strictly in a mainstream pop mode. Nevertheless, Quintanilla manages to handle both styles admirably, thereby expanding his appeal all the more. He may have initially been known as the brother of late Mexican pop siren Selena, but Quintanilla has shown that he's fully capable of forging his own style and building his own career.
