Nuyorican Soul

Better referred to as the dance creation team Masters at the job, Kenny “Dope” Gonzalez and Lil’ Louis Vega became NuYorican Spirit for an EP in 1996 and an eponymous full-length twelve months later. Similar to Guru’s jazz-rap fusion task Jazzmatazz, NuYorican Spirit united jazz legends with newer skills in a special event of jazz, R&B, and dance, with most songs including Latin designs befitting the history of Gonzalez and Vega.
