In the same vein of the traditional Mexican folklore I grew up listening to, here I explore the themes of hopes and fears with stories of Death, the Devil, and baby mommas. The title 'From Brooklyn Ave to South Broadway' is a reference to the street that I was born on (Brooklyn Ave which was renamed to Cesar E. Chavez Ave in 1994) and the street I now live on. Hence, the content is a journey from these two points. The spirit of this piece is very LA and it's no coincidence that I include street names, driving directions, and other elements that are deeply-rooted in the Los Angeles experience.
