Reception

The Allmusic review by Jason Birchmeier awarded the album 3 stars stating "As a rapper, Rodríguez has noticeably matured in the three years since Lujo Ibérico, sounding more confident and laid-back in her delivery and coming up with darker rhymes that are more streetwise and far more hardcore than last time. If anything, the critical acclaim of Lujo Ibérico seems to have hardened Rodríguez and turned her away from the commercial mainstream. Take for instance the lead single "La Niña," a grim song about a young girl who grows up on the margins of society in a barrio filled with drugs, crime, and shattered dreams. Fodder for the pop charts it's not. Unfortunately, Rodríguez is joined by a long list of featured guests on Alevosía. Eight of the 14 tracks feature one or more guests, a Spanish hardcore rap rogue's gallery that most notably includes Giggi Montecquiggia, Kultama, and Kamikaze. These guest rappers, most of them obscure and all of them inferior to Rodríguez, tarnish Alevosía greatly. If not for the onslaught of guest features, Alevosía would be a first-rate album. Rodríguez's raps are peerless, and the production work of Mayúscula, Supernafamacho, and Sr. Tcee is spellbinding. If you can overlook the guest features, there are a lot of highlights besides "La Niña," among them "Lo Fácil Cae Ligero," "En la Hoguera," "Jugadoras, Jugadores," and "Una Raya en el Agua," the latter notable for its touches of flamenco.
