Song You Should Know About 5/5/15 - Ricky Martin's "Mr. Put It Down"...

Today's SYSKA comes from singer and Latin heartthrob Ricky Martin, who back in 1999 helped usher in the "Latin Explosion" on mainstream radio with his #1 hit "Livin' La Vida Loca". Sixteen years later, Ricky's an "out" gay man and proud father of twins, and after a very successful stint as a mentor on the Australian version of The Voice and now doing the same for the Mexican version. He just released a Spanish-language album in February, A Quien Quiera Escuchar, that's worth picking up. In addition, he's just released a new single-only release that has been my car jam this week, "Mr. Put It Down". Yes, it has the inevitable Pitbull on board to aim for airplay (the only way these days a more "seasoned" artist can do so), but the slice of post-disco heaven it his strongest pop offering in years...

If this doesn't make your booty shake just a little, there's something wrong.
