Alex Cartañá
Hey Papi

EMI

WE SAY

Fresh sound and beats and a big big hook from this new EMI signing, plus a lyric that recalls the best of Madonna. Alex vocalled Lee-Cabrera's Shake It which was a Beatdown Production. This track is produced by Beatdown and Big Brovaz Ent and it sounds to us like Alex has genuine adult appeal as well as a hit debut single.
