11. Se Quiere, Se Mata"...best described as [Columbia's] take on Alanis Morrisette. The hit single from the album PIES DESCALZOS...is simplistic enough to lodge into your brain like a primitive virus, yet inventive in a way that satisfies even a cynic....the rest of the songs...are equally good..."

DONDE ESTAN LOS LADRONES was nominated for a 1999 Grammy for Best Latin/Rock Alternative Performance.
Latin pop innovator Shakira represents the kind of eventuality for which Alanis Morissette, Bob Dylan and Beck are all precedents. Eventually, all parallel lines intersect, or so that particular mathematical theory suggests, and so it is with separate but co-existing styles. In the world of contemporary music, fusion is an inevitability. Thus, DONDE ESTAN LOS LADRONES. This album finds the charismatic songstress combining traditional Latin roots (represented by the occasional acoustic touches) with post-Alanis angry-young-woman sensibilities, Sheryl Crow-esque pop eclecticism and an electrifying rock & roll rhythm. Those expecting polite recreations of Latin styles past will be sorely disappointed, but listeners for whom crossover is the norm will find a wealth of satisfaction in DONDE ESTAN LOS LADRONES, whether or not they understand the words.
