AMG Review of Nuevo Despertar

José A. Estévez
All Music Guide

Rodriguez rises in lackluster production, which managed to become his biggest commercial success; erotic/romantic tunes are the name of the game. Nonetheless, his unparalleled vocal skills are always a pleasure to hear. "Si, te Menti," "Tu Ni te Piensas," "No te Voy a Defraudar," "Te Estoy Pidiendo," and, of course, "Ven Devorame Otra Vez" were the highly broadcasted hits.
