Mexico: Biography of power
The concentration of power in the caudillo (leader) is as much a formative element of Mexican culture and politics as the historical legacy of the Aztec emperors, Cortez, the Spanish Crown, the Mother Church and the mixing of the Spanish and Indian population into a mestizo culture. Krauze shows how history becomes biography during the century of caudillos from the insurgent priests in 1810 to Porfirio and the Revolution in 1910. The Revolutionary era, ending in 1940, was dominated by the lives of seven presidents -- Madero, Zapata, Villa, Carranza, Obregon, Calles and Cardenas. Since 1940, the dominant power of the presidency has continued through years of boom and bust and crisis. A major question for the modern state, with today's president Zedillo, is whether that power can be decentralized, to end the cycles of history as biographies of power.

Mexicano 777 (born Israel Perales Ortiz), is a reggaetón and Latin hip-hop artist of Puerto Rican descent. His artist name comes from the fact that his father is of Mexican heritage. His ability to sing was unveiled by parents and siblings when Israel went to take a shower and began to sing. As he came out of the bathroom everyone was waiting in front of the door asking how he had learned the songs he was singing (those of Pedrito Fernandez). All this happened when the singer was just 6 years old. At this young age he was already to duplicate the voice of Fernandez. Therefore after the young singer began taking part in various school activities such as plays, recitals, musicals. Soon after people would start calling him by his nickname "Mexicano". As his voice continued to develop his would focus more on rapping. His beginnings can be traced back to the days of DJ Playero and DJ Adam. First with Adam he wrote "Se Testigo" and won the "Best New Style Award". Next he began working with Playero, a main pioneer in hip hop generation in Puerto Rico.
