"In this mix, I want you to feel like you just pulled up to La Payola, pure Puerto Rico street energy. Voceteo blasting, school buses (called guaguas escolares) turned into monster sound machines, speakers shaking the block, lights hitting the night. This ain’t no ride... this is a party on wheels.”
