The diversity of tracks runs deep on A LITTLE BIT OF MAMBO. Songs like "Baby Keep Smilin'," "Tricky, Tricky," and "1+1=2" evidence the creative styles of Lou Bega. All the songs have a danceable, feel-good vibe that's generated by horns, cool beats, edits, and effects. A LITTLE BIT OF MAMBO will surely keep your attention for a little while.
Industry Reviews ...with its hopped-up horns and leering lyrics...his debut album is filled with the sort of frantic, good-time tunes taht'll make your next party jump like a Spanish HArlem dance club on Saturday night. - Rating: B+o Entertainment Weekly (10/01/1999)
