But her solo career veers away from funk and into deeper, electronica-influenced singer-songwriter territory. Mercifully, Valenzuela avoids the Shakira-imitation trap, opting to trade in vocal histrionics for a rich, full sound that nods to techno dancefloors while keeping one eye fixed firmly on the pop market. Her first solo release, <I>Lado Este</I>, rose above the fray thanks to beautiful production and above-average songwriting. - Sarah BardeenLatin Popen720Mon, 30 Nov 2009 05:22:39 -0800 http://static.realone.com/rotw/images/logo_rhapsody_113x22.gif http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.7514985&rws=%2Fsara-valenzuela%2Fmusic-videos.rss Sara Valenzuela is best known for her work with Mexican funk outfit La Dosis, a band that made waves throughout the 1990s with a series of popular albums.
