Residente o Visitante (Resident or Visitor) is the second studio album by Puerto Rican urban/hip hop band Calle 13, released on April 24, 2007, by Sony BMG. Recorded in various countries while on tour in promotion of the duo's debut album Calle 13, Residente o Visitante marked an evolution in the band's musical and lyrical style. While writing the album, the duo took a trip to South America to explore areas populated by Latin America's indigenous and African-descended minorities, a journey that greatly influenced the music on Residente o Visitante. The album features six guest artists and delves into genres such as tango, bossa nova, cumbia, and electronica.
Residente o Visitante debuted at number one on the US Billboard Top Latin Albums chart, selling 12,000 copies in its first week. The record was also certified Gold in Argentina by the Argentine Chamber of Phonograms and Videograms Producers (CAPIF). The first single released from the album, "Tango del Pecado", reached number 14 on the Billboard Latin Rhythm Airplay chart. The record received positive reviews from critics, who praised the album's experimental nature and unique lyrical themes. The album also won Best Urban Music Album and Best Urban Song for "Pal' Norte" at the 8th Annual Latin Grammy Awards. A film entitled Sin Mapa documenting the group's travel experiences while recording the album was released on July 29, 2009.
Background
Calle 13 was formed when step-brothers Residente (real name René Pérez Joglar) and Visitante (real name Eduardo José Cabra Martínez) began creating music together in 2004. The step-brothers hosted their music on a website, and began searching for a record label in order to release their music commercially.{{cite web|url=http://allmusic.com/artist/calle-13-p747326/biography|title=Calle 13 Biography|last=Birchmeier|first=Jason|access-date=February 2, 2011|work=Allmusic|publisher=Rovi Corporation|archive-date=March 26, 2011|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110326014912/http://allmusic.com/artist/calle-13-p747326/biography|url-status=live}} After giving demo tapes to Carlos "Karly" Rosario an A&R for White Lion Records, the duo was offered a record deal. The duo gained recognition for their controversial song "Querido FBI", which responded to the killing of Filiberto Ojeda Ríos, a key figure for the Puerto Rican independence movement.{{cite news|url=https://www.nytimes.com/2010/04/11/arts/music/11calle.html|title=Continuing Days of Independence for Calle 13|last=Rohter|first=Larry|date=April 18, 2010|work=The New York Times|access-date=April 7, 2009|archive-date=April 13, 2010|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100413172709/http://www.nytimes.com/2010/04/11/arts/music/11calle.html|url-status=live}}
Soon after "Querido FBI" gained notoriety for Calle 13, the band's 2005 eponymously titled debut album was released and became commercially and critically successful in Latin America. The group was subsequently labeled as reggaeton, a genre that the duo wished to distance itself from. Visitante commented on the situation: "The truth is that the first record had only four reggaetons. Those were the cuts used for promotional purposes, and so that’s the brand that was put on us. But from the beginning, to me, reggaeton never offered anything musically. My brother liked it, yes, but we always tried to execute it in an organic way, with real instruments and mixing it with other genres."

While writing Residente o Visitante, the duo took a trip to South America to explore areas populated by Latin America's indigenous and African-descended minorities. Residente reflected on the journey, stating, "We saw horrible things, but also things that were incredibly beautiful. Some of the contrasts are really intense."{{cite news|url=http://www.nydailynews.com/latino/2007/04/11/2007-04-11_down_n_dirty_south_america_way.html|title=Down 'n' dirty, South America way|date=April 18, 2007|access-date=August 26, 2011|work=NY Daily News|publisher=Mortimer Zuckerman|last=Diaz|first=Margarita|archive-date=March 10, 2009|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090310185415/http://www.nydailynews.com/latino/2007/04/11/2007-04-11_down_n_dirty_south_america_way.html|url-status=live}} The duo was strongly influenced by the experience; Visitante discovered and purchased several new musical instruments on the trip including a quijada, a charango and a bombo legüero, all of which were used on the song "Llegale a Mi Guarida".{{cite news|url=https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-2009-aug-02-ca-calle2-story.html|title=Calle 13, in search of the real Latin America|last=Morales|first=Ed|date=August 2, 2009|access-date=February 7, 2011|work=Los Angeles Times|archive-date=March 12, 2012|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120312162553/http://articles.latimes.com/2009/aug/02/entertainment/ca-calle2|url-status=live}} Residente and Visitante felt that writing on the road was conducive to the group's creative output.{{cite news|url=https://www.chicagotribune.com/2007/06/07/calle-13-expands-with-tango-and-hip-hop/|title=Calle 13 expands with tango and hip-hop|last=Burr|first=Ramiro|work=Chicago Tribune|publisher=Tribune Company|date=June 7, 2007|access-date=October 3, 2011|archive-date=October 25, 2012|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121025081346/http://articles.chicagotribune.com/2007-06-07/features/0706060226_1_reggaeton-residente-bossa-nova|url-status=live}} The group's journeys were documented in a film entitled Sin Mapa, which debuted on July 29, 2009 at the New York International Latino Film Festival and later was released on DVD.
Residente o Visitante was recorded in various countries, as the band was on tour during the making of the album. Residente explained that the group did not feel any pressure to compete with the success of Calle 13, and felt that the recording of Residente o Visitante was a smoother process than the first: "The main difference for us this time around was that we had more opportunities, more tools and more money. We were also on tour at the same time, unlike the first. I spent my time writing during the travels, while my brother would write the music." Residente was invited by La Mala Rodriguez to come to Spain to collaborate on a song.{{cite news|url=https://www.chicagotribune.com/2007/07/13/raunchy-calle-13-goes-to-head-of-crass/|title=Raunchy Calle 13 goes to head of crass|last=Lechner|first=Ernesto|work=Chicago Tribune|publisher=Tribune Company|date=July 13, 2007|access-date=October 5, 2011|archive-date=July 28, 2014|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140728153904/http://articles.chicagotribune.com/2007-07-13/entertainment/0707110857_1_billboard-latin-tego-calderon-residente|url-status=live}} He agreed, as he greatly admired La Mala's work, and the two met for drinks where they discussed the kind of song they wanted to create before going to the studio to record what would later become "Mala Suerta Con el 13".

On the record, the band wished to experiment more with live instruments and diverse styles of music. Margarita Diaz of NY Daily News referred to Residente o Visitante as "an exhilarating travelogue through the sounds and rhythms of [South America]." Visitante, who composed the music on the album, credits the musical diversity to his past. He began playing classical piano at age six, and at age 17, he joined a varied array of bands and played saxophone and keyboards.{{cite news|url=http://articles.orlandosentinel.com/2007-06-29/entertainment/CALLE13_1_puerto-rico-puerto-rican-latin-hip-hop|title=Calle 13's urban sound reflects Puerto Rico's mean streets|last=Wald|first=Elijah|work=Orlando Sentinel|publisher=Tribune Company|date=June 29, 2007|access-date=October 4, 2011|archive-date=August 10, 2014|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140810135631/http://articles.orlandosentinel.com/2007-06-29/entertainment/CALLE13_1_puerto-rico-puerto-rican-latin-hip-hop|url-status=dead}} Residente o Visitante features more guest artists than the band's debut, including collaborations with musicians such as Tego Calderón, La Mala Rodríguez and Orishas.{{cite web|url=http://allmusic.com/album/residente-o-visitante-r1032879/review|title=Residente o Visitante Review|last=Birchmeier|first=Jason|work=Allmusic|publisher=Rovi Corporation|access-date=February 9, 2011}} Andrew Casillas of Stylus Magazine opined that the duo stripped down the trademarks of reggaetón, including its percussion sounds and dembow rhythms, to create "complex song structures all but foreign to mainstream pop."{{cite web |last1=Casillas |first1=Andrew |title=Calle 13 - Residente o Visitante - Review |url=http://stylusmagazine.com/reviews/calle-13/residente-o-visitante.htm |website=Stylus Magazine |access-date=December 16, 2024 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090724143709/http://stylusmagazine.com/reviews/calle-13/residente-o-visitante.htm |archive-date=July 24, 2009 |date=June 6, 2007}}
The introduction to the album, as described by Elijah Wald of the Los Angeles Times, "sounds like a lovely Baroque chorale – unless one speaks Spanish, in which case it becomes immediately evident that it's an ornate canon of the filthiest words in Puerto Rican street slang." "Tango del Pecado" mixes tango and reggaeton, and has been referred to as "tango-tón". The song features Argentinian music producer Gustavo Santaolalla and his Bajofondo Tango Club. Puerto Rican rapper Tego Calderón is featured on "Sin Exagerar", which contains guitar influenced by surf rock. Additionally, the song "Cumbia de los Aburridos" is strongly influenced by Colombian cumbia music, featuring an accordion and a horn section. "Un Beso De Desayuno" mixes electronica, rap and bossa nova.
=Lyrics=
Residente described the album as more introspective and autobiographical than its predecessor. With the lyrics on the record, Residente aimed for authenticity, attempting to tackle subjects not typically discussed in conventional reggaeton.{{cite news|url=http://articles.ocregister.com/2007-06-13/entertainment/24704160_1_reggaeton-visitante-puerto-rican-duo-calle|title=Five questions with Calle 13|last=Darling|first=Cary|date=June 13, 2007|access-date=October 4, 2011|work=The Orange County Register|publisher=Terry Horne|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://archive.today/20130131025100/http://articles.ocregister.com/2007-06-13/entertainment/24704160_1_reggaeton-visitante-puerto-rican-duo-calle|archive-date=January 31, 2013}} He explained that listening to Residente o Visitante is similar to watching a movie, in the sense that the album depicts real life events and uses profanity to evoke emotion in the listener. Leila Cobo of Billboard wrote that the lyrical content of Residente o Visitante ranges from "sophomoric humor to outright perversion".{{cite magazine|url=http://www.billboard.com/news/los-de-atr%C3%A1s-vienen-conmigo-1003885785.story#/news/los-de-atr%C3%A1s-vienen-conmigo-1003885785.story|title=Los de Atrás Vienen Conmigo – Review|last=Cobo|first=Leila|magazine=Billboard|publisher=Prometheus Global Media|date=November 8, 2008|access-date=March 31, 2012}} The song "Mala Suerte Con el 13", the group's collaboration with La Mala Rodriguez, is a satire of the "Latin macho attitude".{{cite web|url=https://www.reuters.com/article/music-calle13-dc-idUSN2035242520070421?pageNumber=1|title=Q&A: Calle 13 continues pushing boundaries|last=Cobo|first=Leila|date=April 20, 2007|access-date=February 7, 2011|work=Reuters|publisher=Thomson Reuters|archive-date=January 20, 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160120074322/http://www.reuters.com/article/music-calle13-dc-idUSN2035242520070421?pageNumber=1|url-status=live}} He wished to defy and poke fun at traditional gender roles, citing feminist philosopher Judith Butler as an influence; "I wanted to record a duet between a guy who's weak and inadequate, and a woman who's a sexual psychopath and has all the power in the world. A complete mockery of macho stereotypes". In the same vein, "Sin Exagerar" parodies the misogyny that Residente felt had saturated the reggaeton scene.
The album's lead single, "Tango del Pecado", is addressed to the parents of Residente's then-girlfriend, former Miss Universe Denise Quiñones, who did not approve of the couple's relationship.{{cite web|url=https://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=106476931|title=Calle 13 Invites Fans To Embrace The Ugly|last=Rivera|first=Enrique|publisher=National Public Radio|access-date=March 4, 2012|archive-date=March 5, 2012|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120305125629/http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=106476931|url-status=live}} He explains that the song expresses how he will still date her regardless of their opinions, and author Ed Morales observes that "It's a calling out of the morality of Latin America. It's just an invitation to turn everything upside-down by embracing the ugly and profane in life and, you know, asking people to go on that journey." "Tango del Pecado" also created controversy due to the repeated chanting of "Súbele el volumen a la música satánica" (turn up the satanic music). Residente asserts that he did not add the line to create a reaction, saying, "I never do something expecting something. I do things because I like them." "El Avión Se Cae" depicts the thoughts of a drunken airplane passenger. In "Pal Norte", Residente discusses the plight of immigrants in the United States. Commenting on the track's lyrical themes, he explained "I had wanted to do that theme because I think it is an important topic. And not just for the immigrants in the United States but all over. It is a song that immigrants can identify with, Dominicans as well as Puerto Ricans. All the people leave one country for another for the same reasons." Although much of the album addresses immigration and moving to different countries, "La Crema" is a celebration of living in Puerto Rico.{{cite news|title=Sonidos Latinos, Nothing unlucky about Calle 13s rebel sound|last=Morales|first=Ed|date=April 22, 2007|work=Newsday|publisher=Fred Groser}}
Title and artwork
File:Calle 13 los dos Chile.jpg
The album's name was inspired by an experience from Residente and Visitante's childhood. When they were children, Visitante would visit his brother at the Calle 13 (13th Street) of the El Conquistador subsection of Trujillo Alto, Puerto Rico every week. Since the subsection is a gated community, visitors were routinely asked "¿Residente o visitante?" ("Resident or visitor?") by a security guard when approaching the community's main gate. Therefore, Visitante would identify himself as a visitor, while Residente would have to insist that he was a resident to clear the gate. The pair named themselves Calle 13 after the street their family's house was on. The title is also meant to refer to the status of immigrants in the United States, a recurring theme on the record.
The album cover depicts a winged virgin with a canteen on her chest resembling the Sacred Heart of Jesus.{{cite news|title=Calle 13 listos para la controversia|last=González-Andino|first=Heriberto|date=April 20, 2007|work=El Diario La Prensa|language=Spanish|publisher=ImpreMedia}} Residente noted that the image represents Hispanic immigrants coming to the United States, in an attempt to both sanctify the immigrants and humanize the holy images common in Latin America. An image inside the CD booklet features Residente with stigmata in his hands. He noted that the photo is intended to portray Jesus as a "regular guy" who deals with struggles similar to those of people crossing borders. He further commented, "Obviously, [the art of the CD] is not made for people who are used to seeing the guy with the chick in a bikini in a car with all her jewelry. We don't come here to befuddle the people more."

The album received positive reviews from critics. Jason Birchmeier of Allmusic gave Residente o Visitante 4 out of 5 stars, noting the disc's diverse musical styles and unique lyricism: "Residente is a gifted rapper who matches Eminem in terms of wit and playfulness while Visitante is a similarly gifted producer who creates multi-layered tracks that rarely sound alike." Andrew Casillas of Stylus Magazine gave the album an A− grade, calling it a "trailblazing record".{{cite web|url=http://www.stylusmagazine.com/reviews/calle-13/residente-o-visitante.htm|title=Review of Residente o Visitante|work=Stylus Magazine|last=Casillas|first=Andrew|date=June 6, 2007|access-date=February 9, 2011|archive-date=December 2, 2010|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20101202034736/http://stylusmagazine.com/reviews/calle-13/residente-o-visitante.htm|url-status=live}} Casillas praised Residente's rapping on the record, calling his performance "a revelation" and referring to the song "Un Beso de Desayuno" as the band's "most noble achievement: a fully formed reggaetón love song." However, Casillas felt that the album was overly long and stated that "Uiyi Guaye" sounds like "Donald Duck on a treadmill".
Olivia Muñoz of The Philadelphia Inquirer referred to the record as "weird, seductive, thought-provoking and hilarious all at once", and despite noting the unconventional lyrical themes, she deemed many of the songs to be "surprisingly danceable".{{cite news|title=CD Reviews – Residente o Visitante|last=Muñoz|first=Olivia|work=The Philadelphia Inquirer|publisher=Philadelphia Media Network|date=April 27, 2007}} Phil Freeman of The Village Voice called the album "more thoughtful and musically broad-minded" than its predecessor, and noted that the album gave Residente "a platform for a more explicit political consciousness than some might have predicted", referring to the songs "Pal Norte" and "La Cumbia de los Aburridos".{{cite web|url=http://www.villagevoice.com/2008-10-08/music/calle-13-s-bold-innovation-vulgarity/|title=Calle 13's Bold Innovation, Vulgarity|last=Freeman|first=Phil|work=The Village Voice|publisher=Michael Cohen|date=October 8, 2008|access-date=February 9, 2011|archive-date=September 22, 2010|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100922101242/http://www.villagevoice.com/2008-10-08/music/calle-13-s-bold-innovation-vulgarity/|url-status=dead}} Agustin Gurza of the Los Angeles Times opined that the album is "more mature, though no less outrageous" than the band's debut, and referred to "Tango del Pecado" and "Pal' Norte" as "two of the most memorable songs of the year."{{cite news|url=http://www.latimes.com/entertainment/news/music/la-et-music200716dec16,0,1016542.htmlstory|title=The year in music – Latin pop expands boundaries|last=Gurza|first=Agustin|date=December 15, 2007|access-date=March 17, 2012|work=The Los Angeles Times|publisher=Tribune Company|archive-date=February 5, 2011|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110205123559/http://www.latimes.com/entertainment/news/music/la-et-music200716dec16,0,1016542.htmlstory|url-status=live}} Nuria Net of Vibe felt that the "cutting edge appeal" of the debut album was "reduced to vulgar lyrics" on Residente o Visitante, writing, "though this second album shows impressive breadth, swaying from reggaeton to cumbia to tango, Calle 13's powerful social critiques are but a memory."{{cite web|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=qyYEAAAAMBAJ&q=calle+13&pg=PA132|title=Calle 13 – Residente o Visitante Review|last=Net|first=Nuria|work=Vibe|publisher=Vibe Media Group|date=June 2007|access-date=July 6, 2012|archive-date=November 7, 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211107230440/https://books.google.com/books?id=qyYEAAAAMBAJ&q=calle+13&pg=PA132|url-status=live}}
