Kumbia Kings Become Kumbia All-Starz
Saturday August 12, 2006
When Los Kumbia King's A.B. Quintanilla III Presents Kumbia Kings Live! album came out, rumors persisted that this would be the last Kumbia Kings album - at least in their present configuration. So what's happening with the Kings?
Well, A.B. Quintanilla III has just announced that the Kings will still be with us under a new name, Kumbia All-Starz, with teenager PeeWee (Irvin Salinas) taking the mike as lead singer. It's tough to know exactly which (or if any) members of the old group will be part of the All-Starz - especially with PeeWee's recent public feud with the Kings when he was replaced in a concert after calling in sick.
The Kumbia All-Starz are planning on releasing their first album next month; I guess we'll have to wait and see.

I hope A.B. Quintanilla and his new group, Kumbia All-Starz, have so much success because they deserve it. The truth finally came out; Cruz Martinez thought that money was more important than friendship. I’m just wondering how the Kumbia Kings will go on without the main man? A.B. was the master mind of the Kumbia Kings. But now he can put all his passion and effort into his new project, making the Kumbia All-Starz the best group. A.B. is brilliant. He knows music. He’s the best at what he does. And Cruz, he’s going to realize how dumb he was to betray his ‘best friend’. One last thing for Cruz Martinez: Never Bite The Hand That Feeds You!
fairing pee wee was a bad idea n now his wit the kumbia all-starz thier wanna have more fans than u cruz
KUMBIA ALL-STARZ ARE GONNA RULE THE WORLD…
U GO AB LOVE YOU!
well kumbia all-starz are goin to hab a great success .And bad idea cruz 4 replacing pee wee.
I HOPE A.B HAS GOOD SUCCESS AND THAT PEEWEE TAKES CONTROL…..TO BAD FOR CRUZ…HE WAS TIGHT…
Justed wanted to wish you guys the best.
peewee is the best…Thanks ab for returning.
THE KUMBIA ALL-STARZ ARE GUNNA BE MORE SUCCESSFUL THAN THE KUMBIA KINGS BECAUSE EVERYBODY LOVES AB, HES THE MASTER MIND BEHIND IT ALL, AND WHO ARE THE KINGS WITHOUT HIM? AND EVERYBODY LOVES PEE WEE, ESPECIALLY ALL THE CHIQUILLAS OUT THERE, SO EVERYBODY’S GUNNA SWITCH OVER TO THEM…..GO KUMBIA ALL-STARZ!!! DO YOUR THING!!
kumbia allstarz are going to be the best. Cruz you souldn’t of replaced peewee.
to bad for cruz because know almost everyboby is going to hate kumbia kings for replacing peeewee and I hope a.b makes a good success with
KUMBIA-ALL STARZ!!!!!!!
Kumbia All-Starz are going to have success becuz A.B. was the one writing the songs and the so called “friend” Cruz did a huge mistake replacing Peewee becuz he has many fans. Kumbia All-Starz all the way
Just wanted to congratulate A.B.Quintanilla on his new Project Kumbia All-Starz…You got ur fans backing you up sweetie, you knew that from the beginning…Cant wait for the new C.D..Hope to see you soon in Laredo, TX..take care and once again Welcome “Kumbia All-Starz”
All I know is that Kumbia Kings have been doing good for a long time now so obviously AB was doing something right.
and Cruz aint going no where without PEE WEE any way.Cuz i know not to be mean but good ol’yoyo aint got nothing on PEE WEE. So yall keep ur head up and just remember Yall got a lot of fans behind you guys and i will make it a point to go and buy your cd as soon as it comes out GooD Luck Kumbia All-Starz and hope to see yall in the ATL soon.
You guys have no idea what is going on. Pee Wee was not fired. He missed a gig to go and record with the All Starz so Cruz was just covering his ass. AB is a minipulative person and Pee Wee is young and belives everything that he tells him. Cruz actually owns the Kumbia Kings name in Mexico, not AB.
I hope that Cruz comes out of this ok. AB has not been with the band for a while and they have been doing just fine. Pee Wee will realize that he should have stayed where he was. There are two sides to every story. Cruz has always gone out of his way to not say anything bad about AB, but AB obviously care more about $ than friendship. Open your eyes people and your ignorant minds.
PEEWEE WAS ONE O THE MOST TALENTED SINGERS REPLACING HIM WAS WRONG NOW THAT A.B. HAS STARTED ANOTHER GROUP THE KUMBIA KINGS REMAINING SHOULD KEEP THEIR EYES OPEN CRUZ MARTINEZ WAS NOBODY UNTIL A.B. GAVE HIM FAME HOPEFULLY KUMBIA ALL STARZ WILL HAVE A GREAT SUCCESS AND I KNOW THAT I WILL DEFINITELY SUPPORT THEM BECAUSE WHEN SOMEONE CALLED A “FRIEND” NOT ONLY TALKS ABOUT YOU BUT BACKSTABS YOU THEY WERE NEVER YOUR TRUE FRIENDS AND LESS YOUR HERMANO!!!
to jennifer…..well cruz owns the name in mexico , because he stole it!…everyone knows that a.b. is the one who came up with kumbia kings he is the truly owner of it, he put all the money that went in to the group and cruz was a nobody.if you call someone that steals your group and millions of dollars a “friend” then what kind of retarded friend are you?!!!!!cruz was the one who care for the $ because he was the one who took the $ and the action of stealing the name of the group ,that’s what hurt a.b. more the backstabing of the one he consider a brother.
I hop dat PeeWee haz a good tyme in KUMBIA ALL STARZ!!! I LUV U PEEWEE!!!
