Background

[edit]

In 2001, Cruz released her fifty-ninth album, La Negra Tiene Tumbao. The album featured a top ten single, in its title track as well as two relatively successful singles, "Hay Que Empezar Otra Vez" and "Pa' Arriba No Va".[2] "La Negra Tiene Tumbao" peaked at number thirty on the Billboard Latin Songs chart and number four on the Billboard Tropical Songs chart. "Hay Que Empezar Otra Vez" peaked at number sixteen on the Billboard Tropical Songs chart.[2] The former received nominations for Record of the Year, Song of the Year, and Music Video of the Year at the Latin Grammy Awards of 2002.[3][4] The album won the Latin Grammy Award for Best Salsa Album.[5] It was nominated for Album of the Year.[3] The album peaked at number five and number two on the Billboard Latin Albums and Billboard Tropical Albums charts, respectively. It also managed to peak at number thirty-eight on the Billboard Heatseeker Albums chart.[2] In November 2002, a compilation album entitled Hits Mix was released. The album eventually went on to peak at number two on the Billboard Latin Albums,[6] and number one on the Billboard Tropical Albums chart.[7] It also peaked at number 106 on the Billboard 200.[8]

Recording and production

[edit]

Following a presentation in Mexico in 2002, Cruz began to show signs of her failing health.[9] Cruz was to begin recording in December 2002,[10] however that month,[11] Cruz was sidelined by a brain tumor.[12] In early 2003,[13] following a partially successful surgery to remove the tumor, Cruz returned to the studio to record Regalo del Alma,[12] weeks after the operation.[14] While recording the album, Cruz knew "she was gonna die at any moment, any month," according to producer Sergio George. George claimed the album to be an emotional and bizarre project to work on. He cited Cruz's "will to win and to fight to get this record done" as being something he would cherish for the rest of his life, calling the album his great achievement.[15] "Ríe y Llora" was the final song recorded before her death.[16] Cruz asked that the song be the lead single for the album, "as it was the song in which she identified with."[16] Cruz later died on 16 July 2003 of brain cancer,[17][18][19] at the age of 77.[12]

Musical composition

[edit]

"Ella Tiene Fuego" ("She Has Fire") combines tropical and rap musical genres.[20] On Eduardo Marceles' biography of Cruz, Marceles considered the song to be "another rap theme".[21] The second track, "José Caridad", was composed in minor key tonality. It features the use of a piano, a brass horn ensemble, prominent percussion and mallet percussion. The song also uses acoustic instrumentation. The song also makes use of vocal call and response.[22]

"Ríe y Llora" ("Laugh and Cry") was composed in minor key tonality with joyful lyrics and catchy hooks. It features the use of a piano, brass horn ensemble and prominent percussion. It takes influence from Afro-Latin music.[23] The song experiments in pop balladry, accompanied by the use of an electric guitar.[24] According to a biography of Cruz, the song "is about laughing and crying. Cruz reminds her listeners to live their lives fully and enjoy every moment."[25] Cuban writer Jose Quiroga claimed the song to be "an appeal to live for the moment, and to understand that forgiveness is not forgetting, but rather the possibility of remembering without pain."[26] He opined that the song was appropriately titled.[26]

"Pa' La Cola" was composed in major key tonality. It features Caribbean roots, taking influences from Afro-Latin American and Caribbean musical styles.[27] "María la Loca" ("María, the Crazy One") was composed in minor key tonality. Lyrically, the song speaks of love and heartbreak. It experiments in acoustic balladry.[28] "Yo Vivire (I Will Survive)" was originally performed by American singer Gloria Gaynor. It was written by Freddie Perren and Dino Fekaris.[29] Cruz originally covered the song in Spanish on her 2000 album, Siempre Vivire (I Will Always Live).[30]

Allmusic's Evan Gutierrez gave the album four and a half stars out of five stars. He praised the album for "keeping with the exuberant, joyful tone" of Cruz and for its freshness that made the project invigorating. Gutierrez claimed the album to have modern stylistic influences and production. For this reason, he claimed the production to sometimes "mask the subtle richness of Celia's vocal performance." He felt that older Cruz fans might not favor the album. He cited "Ella Tiene Fuego" and "La Nina de la Trenza Negra" to be "loop-driven tracks that propel Cruz and her loyal fan base into the 21st century." Gutierrez called "Yo Vivire" "a creative rendition of the disco classic "I Will Survive." He referred to it being "like a declaration from beyond" with "chilling lyrics and a gorgeous arrangement."[53] Leila Cobo of Billboard magazine felt that the album was recorded in "typical Cruz manner: quickly and from the heart."[10] The Chicago Tribune's Achy Obejas gave the album a favorable review. He called a "measured finale". He compared "Ella Tiene Fuego" to Cruz's 2001 single "La Vida Es Un Carnaval" and "La Nina de la Trenza Negra" to "La Negra Tiene Tumbao". He claimed the album to deliver "power pop, hardcore salsa and Cuban soul". He called "Yo Vivire" "over the top", also labeling it "testimony," because according to him, "for all her modesty, even she [Cruz] knew she was timeless."[54]

Accolades and legacy

[edit]

"Ríe y Llora" received an American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers award for Tropical Song of the Year.[56] At the Latin Grammy Awards of 2004, the song won the Latin Grammy Award for Best Tropical Song.[57] It is considered one of Cruz's most significant songs.[58] According to the Spanish-language newspaper, El Pais, the song helped relieve the "nostalgia" caused by Cruz's death.[59] The Spanish-language newspaper El Heraldo, included the song on its list of ten songs that "immortalized Cruz".[60] "Ella Tiene Fuego" also received an American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers award for Tropical Song of the Year in 2005.[61] At the Latin Grammy Award ceremony, Regalo del Alma was awarded the Latin Grammy Award for Best Salsa Album.[62] It also received the Grammy Award for Best Salsa/Merengue Album at the 46th Annual Grammy Awards.[63] The Spanish-language newspaper La Nación claimed "Ríe y Llora" and "Yo Vivire" to be two of Cruz's most "tasty" videos.[64] At the 2004 Latin Billboard Music Awards, Regalo Del Alma was awarded Tropical Album of the Year in the female category. Cobo predicted that the album should and would win the award.[65] She also won the Greatest Hits Album of the Year for Hits Mix (2002), also becoming the Top Latin Albums Artist of the Year.[66] In the Tropical Album of the Year female category, Cruz was also nominated with Exitos Eternos (2003) and Hits Mix.
