THE REYES BROTHERS--Senen “Sen Dog” Reyes (Cypress Hill, SX10) and younger brother Ulpiano “Mellow Man Ace” Reyes (Latin Hip-Hop Hall of Fame inductee for first Latin hip-hop crossover hit single “Mentirosa”)--just completed the video for “Traffic” with renowned director and photographer Estevan Oriol (Blink 182, Cypress Hill, Xzibit). Shot in sections of downtown Los Angeles, Compton and the Reyes Brothers’ hometown of South Gate, CA, the video captures the intoxicating “gas/break/dip” energy of West Coast car culture, along with the party atmosphere of an incredible backyard BBQ filled with girls, pitbulls, roosters, low-lows and all the homies.
“I know anytime we do something with Steveo (Estevan), its gonna be hot,” says Sen Dog. “He’s been working with us on this project since the beginning and he really got what my brother and I were feeling when we wrote ‘Traffic’ and put that on film.” Adds Mellow Man Ace, “Estevan really took our lyrical vision and brought it to life.”
“I've known the Reyes Brothers since 1989,” states Estevan Oriol. “Sen hit me up to do their press shots and album design. Once we knocked that out the next project was the video. The Reyes brothers came to us at S.A. Studio (that’s me, Mr. Cartoon and Lil lucky) to do it all: One, because we can and two, they wanted all the imaging to be consistent. ‘Traffic’ was picked as the single and it was on! Time to show the people of the world a little slice of LA. I had a blast making this video for the homies and can't wait till the next one.”
The video for “Traffic” will be available in the coming weeks and will be serviced to outlets across the country. The track appears on The Reyes Brothers’ debut album Ghetto Therapy, just released October 3, 2006 through Latin Thug Records in conjunction with Koch Entertainment. It features additional vocals and production by Atlanta’s Slip Matola and can now be heard on Los Angeles’ major hip-hop station Power 106 (105.9 FM). Ghetto Therapy is currently at #62 with a bullet on Billboard’s R&B album chart.
