“Mr. Fonsi’s artfully constructed ‘Palabras Del Silencio’ was one of last year’s best Latin records. Though his songs are hugely ambitious, Mr. Fonsi never oversings them…. Instead this is an album as suited to small rooms as huge arenas, which Mr. Fonsi will certainly keep filing, given that the single ‘No Me Doy Por Vencido’ has spent the majority of the last six months atop the Latin music chart.”- New York Times
“Luis Fonsi [is] one of Latin pop’s most accomplished vocalists, one who is not only popular but creative… Palabras del Silencio includes a bounty of hit singles.” – iTunes/All Music
“Palabras del Silencio is Luis Fonsi’s most ambitious and most mature musical statement…. The [album] is splendid, a varied and confident opus… Fonsi’s creative breakthrough… Silencio confirms his membership in the Latin music superstar club. The album’s first single, the beautifully emotive ballad “No Me Doy Por Vencido,” spent a staggering 19 weeks at the top of Billboard’s Hot Latin Songs chart.” – Dallas Morning News
