You guys I have a confession - I am a Tito FAN. I don't really know much about him, I just follow him on Instagram and listen to his music. But lately I feel like the little thing I see about him I find him so quirky and endearing. When I think of him I get fan girl butterflies and feel like I want to pick his brain. As Yuri and I say over and over, you don't pick them (artists, sports teams) they pick you. It kind of freaks me out though because the journey from casual listener to fan has been a very slow and organic process. And I am more of a hard and fast kinda girl. I love para social relationships!!! 

When I first heard Por Sus Besos I was like WHY DOES HE SOUND LIKE THAT. An actual hater. I was just not into his voice. Then I heard his Corazon Partido cover and I, again, was confused with his voice and the appeal. . . but17 listens later and his voice officially grew on me. It's unique and it makes me wonder about all the guttural somersaults he needs to do in order to hit those notes and tones. Te amo Tito. 

The reason we're here is because I was actually counting down the days for Dinastia album release and then when they announced their tour - I HAD to make it!! Shocking that it's at the Lakewood amphitheater but honestly, I was there for Junior H, RBD, and Young Money (in 2016 lmao) and it's such a vibe. Not mad at it at all, just thought they could do State Farm or something bigger. Actually, they better not switch it up on me. I remember Peso Pluma's first tour in Atlanta was at the Coca Cola Roxy, I got tickets and then they switched it to the Ameris Bank Ampitheather. 

So yes, I am PUMPED. When we got tickets these are the 3 songs I immediately listed that I needed to listen to: Tu Con El, Mezcal, Trucha. Mezcal was my #1 song when the album released. Let's list my current rankings 2 months after album release (OMG El Lokeron is playing in the background right now and I feel like I might cry at the concert LMAO I can't).

1. 7-3 - Y'all when I first heard the lyrics to this song I was appalled. Like I stopped in my tracks thinking of how misogynistic it was. But I half misunderstood the lyrics and when I got the full picture, it was excusable enough to digest. And yes, my current favorite. 

2. Dopamina 

UGH I am having trouble. I LOVE LOVE the slow songs but I am in high energy mode these last few weeks... so I need to stay true to my CURRENT ranking. 

3. 20s

4. billete (does Tito really have a house in Atlanta?)

5. intro

6. tu con el

7. putielegante 

8. trucha

9. viejo lobo

10. mezcal

11. malibu

12. ni pedo

13. daño

14. morras II

15. bckpckbyz (I will say the others were very hard to rank but this was an easy 15th place).

I am not ranking the 4 songs just released on Dinastia Deluxe since I haven't had enough listens to distinguish them. Anyways I am super excited for the concert - should I go ahead and budget $80 for merch? UGH. I don't wanna. . . . oh another thing, the concert is them and FRIENDS. They already brought two people out for Seattle and Sacramento but IDK if they will be the same for the whole tour? If it's not, and they bring out Dareyes de la Sierra - doubt it?? but?? - I will ascend to heaven. I am going to  try to lose 60lbs and get a BBL by April 25th so Tito can spot me 700 yards away in a sea of baddies in the cheapest lawn seats and ask me to go on stage.

The album is playing in the background and I almost want to reconfigure my ranking because "this one's really good too" but I won't. I do want to make a disclaimer that listening to the any music in the "belicon" genre and realm has me very torn at times. The age old argument of glorification of violence, drugs, misogyny, and organized crime that involves all the aforementioned and affects innocent people. Lots of valid points and more to explore in another post???
