About "Mundo Verte/ Green World"


"Mundo Verde/Green World", the follow-up to Mister G’s Latin GRAMMY Award-winning album, Los Animales, is a collection of inspiring bilingual songs intended to unite people of all ages and ethnicities in support of global conservation and action. Mister G debuted the songs from Mundo Verde/Green World at the National Climate March in Washington, DC to kick off an extensive US tour.

The album features collaborations with major figures in the Latin music scene, including the Santo Domingo-based merengue superstars 440, performing an eclectic range of styles, from bomba and samba to reggae and bossa nova. The songs breathe life into the global environmental message from various angles that are accessible and relevant to both children and adults.

Mister G has partnered with a number of national environmental organizations (Moms Clean Air Force, National Resources Defence Council, Votes Verdes) for the release of his album.  This is his eighth album and will launch on September 15, 2017. The album's message is a timely one that points to collective efforts to ensure that we bequeath a beautiful world to succeeding generations.

A "Mundo Verde/Green World Songbook," including all the song lyrics in Spanish and English and beautifully illustrated by Marcos Almada Rivero of Oaxaca, Mexico, will be available from the Mister G website.
