Milo J - La Vida Era Más Corta (2025)
La Vida Era Más Corta is a remarkable leap for Milo J—one that refuses to stay in one lane and instead fuses trap’s immediacy with the deep textures of Argentine folk and the emotional weight of generational reflection. From the opening tracks like “Bajo De La Piel” (which invokes ancestral chants and unsung histories) to collaborations that bring in voices such as Soledad Pastorutti, Silvio Rodríguez and even Mercedes Sosa, the album blossoms into a cultural tapestry. Milo navigates themes of identity, legacy and time with an authenticity that belies his age, reframing his musical persona beyond “urban hopeful”. The production is varied—some tracks pulse with beat-driven urgency while others soften into bandoneón, echoing tango and rural rhythms—and the balance between experimentation and accessibility is impressive. Ultimately, La Vida Era Más Corta stands not only as a statement of self but as a generational manifesto: life may be short, yes—but the echoes we leave, the roots we honour, and the voice we claim can endure far beyond.
