I came across this guy, just had to get your opinion, as i was disturbed by what i read:\nHe wears a sombrero and a garish jumpsuit with the Virgin of Guadalupe embroidered in sequins on the back. He sings such songs as "You Ain't Nothin' but a chihuahua," "En el Barrio" and "Huaraches Azules." One newspaper headline dubbed him "Elvis for Aztecs." He's El Vez, the Mexican Elvis!\n He sports gold lame suits, loud mariachi outfits, a pencil mustache and Aztec headgear. At performances, his El Vettes gyrate behind him. You want sociopolitical import? El Vez has transmogrified Elvis songs into explorations of immigration rights and other social issues ("Suspicious Minds" becomes "Immigration Time," while "Little Sister" is now "Chicanisma," about the empowerment of Latinas).

he's still in the radio business, i last heard him doing the top 40 countdown but for reggaeton on 96.3FM... its kinda weird listening to him doing a countdown in spanish after having him doing the top 40 at KIIS.   This still in L.A.

That's crap.  I just listened to that songs really close, and what juicy j says is "producer". I can't understand the woman but I don't hear lucifer at all. People are always looking for something in music.  Elvis was evil in his time, think about it.

I don't think he's racist. i just watched Punkd yesterday. Where Avril and Mike Jones were Punkd and yes the fake police was called in for Mike Jones' one but every Punk has to be different. i believe you may have over-thought it a bit :/

good grief. ive seen nothing but lame answers so far except for a few. let me break it down for ya. they are planning on legilization of drugs in mexico. yes and it is all drugs. so yes some mexican guy can walk around all geeked up on coke. is it the mob taking over? no. vincent fox is signing the bill into law to crack down on the gangs selling the drugs. these are the same gangs fighting each other for the lucritive US pipeline. they did propose limits on how much you could carry on your person without being bothered by the police which i can tell you is not much.\n\n\noh and far as legalization in the US. hard drugs i say no. marijauna i say yes. i dont even smoke the stuff but i think it should be legal. its only a gateway drug for people who just want to get F****** up. the highschool health classes are filling your heads with a bunch of lame crap. to all the young teenage kids out there, you havent began to see life for what it really is so what im saying probably wouldnt make sense to you. but anyways if marijauna were treated like alcohol it would work in the system.

Yes..I have seen the vid...makes ya go hmmm...certainly an out of ordinary video..it was seen and recorded in Mexico...there have been numerous reports...and until last year no video..It is truly hard to say what it is...but it is very strange...almost like a jet pack...but..who really knows for now..I prefer to keep an open mind on things and not assume until more proof is shown..but as I said..the vid is interesting to say the least.

Yeah - I started getting into Elvis when I was about 16.  (I'm 29 now)  I used to make fun of him like most people my age, but after I saw him on tv I changed my mind real quick.  I found myself screaming in my living room like the girls at the concerts.  I was a bit embarassed by that, but I did do it.  :)  He's a great singer, his movies are mostly pathetic, but that's not the point is it?  Jailhouse Rock is my fave, followed by Viva Las Vegas and Roustabout. \n\nI got a chance to go to Graceland a couple years ago.  Pretty cool, but also depressing.  The tour ends at the graves of him and his family (including twin brother)  Elvis' middle name is misspelled on the tombstone though, so he may still walk among us.  :)

I think it's time we nut kick Vicente Fox. There have been numerous incursions of our land by both the Mexican military and federales who are escorting illegals and drug runners into the US. They have fired on Border Patrol Agents and local Law Enforcement Officers. This has been outlined by Arizona Rep Tom Tancredo on various news channels, yet it still goes on! The link from fireman shows the contempt this scum has for us, and it's still tolerated. JD is right again - time to lock and load! The only thing that's brown on my land that I won't shoot is my dogs! God Bless the USA!!!

I thought HIM was a christian band. Maybe not, I don't know. Besides, vampires aren't necessarily satanic. The vampire lore comes from many different countries, christian or not, and does not really have any specific origins in christian folklore. In fact the vampire myths are so ancient that they surpass christianity in age. So you can tell him that. \nBut I don't think you're going to persuade your friend. No offense but he sounds a bit um...closeminded. And if a band sings about a vampire, that doesn't mean they like vampires either.\nBy the way, I just looked at their website and the symol is very very similar to the satanic symbol, which was stolen from witchcraft by the way. Satanists are so unorginal.\nBut no, the symbol isn't exactly the same, because the top parts don't end in points like they should.\n\nThis is the satanic symbol as it should appear.\nhttp://www.religion-spirituality.org/images/satanismsymbol.gif\n\nSo you see, they are similar, but the one for HIM isn't close enough (for me at least) to consider them satanic.\n\nMy mistake. The orignal one I had a link to was freemason.Oopsy.

You have a large selection of really bad answers here. Everyone that centers on the clothing, the make-up etc, needs to pull their heads out of their asses and learn that the person you are isn't defined by what you wear. And carlito, needs help, real help. As for your answer, do some research, it is a subculture of the punk-rock movement, but again, a lot of bad information. Hit the library, not the web. When you search the web you don't know where your information is coming from, when you are in the library every source is verifiable.

FANTASTIC POST!\n\nI have heard of it and found it online after attending the May I, Illegal Rally.  The illegals were chanting AZTLAN for about five minutes and, after discovering what THAT meant, we continued to research and to our horror, realized that this is a MEXICAN INVASION!\n\nTherefore, no amnesty for anyone.

I met this guy a few months ago who fit the redneck stereotype to a T.  Here is a direct quote from him:\n"Now I don't wanna sound racist, but, if you ever get chased by any blacks or Mexicans, you should take your truck and.. bury it (in the sand) like that.  You just saved your truck.  Well, I guess not the blacks so much.  They just like to get with those nice white girls, but the Mexicans, now all they wanna do is steal your truck."

I agree with you but looking back at the answers you have recieved I cant believe that people dont think that the minuite men are not racist. Hello they are targeting a single group of people. You may say no to that, they are against illegal immigration, but then why arent they building walls or taking stands in other areas that we see as a place for immigrants to enter this country? It is targeted at the Mexican border, so yes they are racist. About La Raza, I cant say for sure what you are talking about so I cant agree with you on that. Can you please tell us what group they are and what they are doing??
