"Black Eyed Peas Get Lost on 'Translation' ... Will.I.Am and crew hop on the Latin-pop bandwagon ... Still, Translation has its unlikely charms. The consistent and savvy Becky G does bilinguality better than most on either side of the Latin divide, as evidenced by her simple yet strong hook for "Duro Hard." As usual, Dominican dembow sensation El Alfa brings his superstar energy to the relatively restrained "No Mañana." Ostensibly Fergie's replacement, J. Rey Soul brings a higher caliber of vocal talent to a handful of these cuts, her complementary presence alongside Ozuna on "Mamacita" in particular doing much needed damage control on behalf of a group so clearly out of its element".
