Pt/~ y PRESENTED BY: L'44ow<fL.,-SECONDED BY: TOMLABONGE Councilmember, 4th District AD PTED JUN 2 7 2012 lOS ANGElES CITY COUNCIL Form 99 CITY OF LOS ANGELES RESOLUTION PEPE AGUILAR WHEREAS, Pepe Aguilar has received a star on the World Famous Hollywood Walk of Fame on Thursday, July 26, 2012; and WHEREAS, in peace and in harmony with his past and present, for many reasons Pepe Aguilar visualizes his future with determination and optimism. At this time he presents his new album entitled "Mas De Un Camino" (More Than One Way), the continuation of his earlter work, but this one contains more rancheras with the traditional mariachi sound; and WHEREAS, considering his fans and always focused on providing superb productions, again Pepe offers an EP (Extended Play) in which they can enjoy an album made to perfection from start to finish. "Ma/dito"(Cursed) by the inspiration of Leone! Garcia (Sin Bandera) is the first single that serves as an introduction to present this spectacular production, and is now heard in the radio airwaves of Mexico and the United States, besides being available for digital purchase on iTunes and other digital stores; and WHEREAS, The tracks of "Mas De Un Camino" continue to explore the different types of love, but in this ranchero~pop album makes them much more alive: "LadoOscuro" (Dark Side) by Fato, "Le Pido aDios" {I pray to God) by Reyli and Ferra "Amor en Secreo'' (Secret Love)by Alfredo Ramirez Corral, "Maldito" {Cursed) by Leone! Garcia, "Creo en Ti' (I believe in you) by Stefano Salgado and Julio Reyes, "Con OtroSabol' {In Another Taste) by RobertoFausto, and "QueDesesperacion" (That Despair) by Marco Antonio Solis; and WHEREAS, Past, present and future come together brilliantly in the present moment of his career, featuring his family, working style, his talent, his passionate love for tradition, the way he actively accepts the new challenges posed by digital technology and above all, his wish to "get back to his roots" as "everything in life is cyclical", all of which have helped him to produce a recording of exceptional quality which concentrates high levels of artistic excellence and pays great respect to his audience; and WHEREAS, this 2012 continues successfully for the multi~award winning artist Pepe Aguilar, this year he will be immortalized on the Hollywood Walk Of Fame, where he'll get his star on the world's most famous boulevard alongside with his father, Don Antonio Aguilar. In addition to taking his music across the United States as part of the tour star "DejandoHuel/a."; and WHEREAS, with his album entitled "Bicentenario" Pepe won the Grammy, for 'Best Regional Mexican or Tejano Album". With this recognition, he now has a total 7 GRAMMYS. In addition, with this production he also won two latin Grammy nominations for best album and best song with "Chaparrita" one of his own compositions; and WHEREAS, Firm in his convictions, inspired more than ever as a composer and producer, Pepe also finds the time to support his children Angela and leonardo, 8 and 12 years old respectively, who have a major surprise coming in the next few months. looking back objectively on his own childhood, he remembers with emotional clarity those first years on the stage with his parents, the legendary Antonio Aguilar and Flor Silvestre, from whom he inherited the talent and heritage, the family tradition of being raised "between concerts", in front of the cameras, because he spent most of his childhood at family shows; "As soon as I was able to pick up a microphone and sing I was part of the show''; and WHEREAS, Born on the 7th of August, brought up on noble Zacatecan land, at the age of three he made his debut at no less a venue than Madison Square Garden in New York; the beginning of a singing career which, in his own individual style and manner, would also see him attain legendary status. However, in spite of the importance of this protective, familial tutelage, he developed his talents himself, leading a movement that would mix the mariachi tradition with the energy of contemporary pop music; and WHEREAS, With global sales of his recordings surpassing 12 million copies and hailed by critics in North America as a 'latin Music Superstar', since the year 2000, among many recognitions, Pepe Aguilar has garnered four Grammys, two latin Grammys, thirteen Premios lo Nuestro including his latest last February 'The Excellence Award', and many Billboards, he is nevertheless still moved and gratified by each experience, saying that "the greatest prize is to see a full auditorium" at the venues where he performs, because singing live and interacting directly with his audience is something unique and lasting; and WHEREAS, The level of success Pepe Aguilar has achieved is also shown in the 15 songs that have reached the top of the Billboard charts, managing to open doors for dozens of singers from the same genre because, thanks to his contemporary style, ranchera music is now being played on radio stations that had never played it before; and WHEREAS, as a businessman, Pepe Aguilar has created the online contest "EI Rey del Mariachi", the objective is to search for the new regional Mexican music representative and will be promoted in his own record label, whose main focus is to help develop new talents.

This is the ultimate Neil Diamond record. Not necessarily the best -- he's at his most appealing crafting in the studio -- but certainly the ultimate, capturing all the kitsch and glitz of Neil Diamond, the showman. And that also means that it's not just loaded with flair, but with filler, songs like "Porcupine Pie," "Soggy Pretzels," and "And the Grass Won't Pay No Mind" -- attempts to write grand, sweeping epics that collapse under their own weight. Still, that's part of the charm of Diamond and while it can sound unbearable on studio albums, it makes some sense here, surrounded by his pomp and circumstance. That spectacle is the great thing about the record, since it inflates not just his great songs, it gives the weaker moments character.
