Fransheska - Menéalo

Review by Scarlem Mateo

Menéalo by Fransheska: A 1992 Latin Dance Floor Gem That’s Still Got It Alright, let’s talk about Menéalo by Fransheska. Released in 1992, this album is like a time machine to the golden era of Latin beats mixed with hip-hop swagger and electronic vibes. If you’re into merengue, salsa, house, or just straight-up tropical bangers, this record has something for everyone. Seriously—it feels like it was made for every dance floor from Mexico to Italy and back again. The album came out through a bunch of labels like Ariola, BMG International U.S. Latin, Prime Records—you name it. And yeah, there were some heavy hitters behind the scenes too. Producer Vico C? Legendary. Remix wizard Barón López? Absolute genius. The writing credits are stacked with folks like Ivan Calderon and Rodolfo Barreras, so you know they weren’t messing around when crafting these tracks. Now, I gotta shout out two tracks that still stick with me after all these years: “Menealo (Techno Merengue Version)” and “Rap’n Roll.” First up, “Menealo (Techno Merengue Version).” This one slaps HARD. Imagine being at a party where everyone’s vibing but no one really knows what to do next. Then THIS track drops. Suddenly, people start moving like puppets on strings—arms waving, hips swaying, feet stomping. It’s got that classic merengue rhythm fused with techno beats that make you feel like you’ve been transported to both a sweaty club AND a Caribbean beach at the same time. Honestly, I don’t even think I could sit still if I tried. Every time I hear it, I’m reminded why merengue will never die. Ever. Then there’s “Rap’n Roll,” which is basically what happens when Latin freestyle meets rap braggadocio. It’s playful, catchy as hell, and kinda reminds me of those old-school jams my tías used to blast during family cookouts. There’s this energy to it that makes you wanna grab someone and spin ‘em around—or maybe bust out your best MC moves if you’re feeling bold. Plus, Vico C’s touch as a producer really shines here. Dude knew how to blend genres without losing the soul of the music. What’s wild about Menéalo is how many versions of the title track exist on the album. Like, there’s literally a “Disco Bailable Version,” an “Instrumental Version,” a “Club Mix,” and more. At first glance, it might seem excessive, but honestly? Each version brings its own flavor. You can tell Fransheska and the team wanted to give listeners options depending on their mood or setting. Whether you’re chilling at home or tearing up the dance floor, there’s a “Menealo” remix for that. Looking back, Menéalo isn’t just an album—it’s a vibe. It’s proof that great music transcends borders and genres. Even now, decades later, it doesn’t feel dated. Sure, the production screams ‘90s, but the energy? Timeless. Oh, and here’s a random thought: Can we all agree that Fransheska should’ve blown up bigger than she did? Like, global superstar status. Just saying. Someone get her on a reunion tour ASAP because I NEED to see “Menealo” live before I kick the bucket.
