AB Quintanilla Speaks About Cruz Martinez
Up until this point, we had heard very little out of AB Quintanilla’s mouth in regards to his split from Kumbia Kings and the fallout with Cruz Martinez. AB decided to speak on the Cristina show to discuss some more details about this.
“I feel cheated, hurt…it hurts when someone who is like family betrays you. He is no longer my friend and to me he is like any other person that tries to hurt my family,” said AB.
AB also said that because of Cruz’s decision to take the band to locations he never approved it ended up costing him over $1 million. This is probably not the last we will hear of this. AB has his own band now, they call themselves Kumbia All-Starz, and he took Pee Wee along with him. He could have been more creative considering he left Kumbia Kings, but there is probably some method to the madness here.

hi, my comment on cruz’s betral to AB
gave a flash back to what happened to the Queen of Cumbia, texmex Selena, i think that the Quintanella family has suffered alot, and that AB trusted someone that he spoke about as family, the same way that the Quintanella’s spoke about yolanda saldivar. as to pee wee he is the only one who seems to know what is loyalty. AB you made Kumbia Kings happen.

The Backlash for AB Has Begun… - Latin Gossip wrote:
[…] Mexico is not happy at all by the comments AB made on a leaked videotape. Even though he blames Cruz Martinez for deliberately leaking the video (the two have been attacking each other in the press since the break-up of Kumbia Kings), it seems that Mexico doesn’t want to hear a word. […]

You know AB might have put the group together, but the sound was already there (La Sombra), they just added a great voice, DJ Kane. Since DJ Kane left, the bands music was just ok. Ask anyone, only the first CD was hot, when they added Frankie J, while he is a great performer, the best songs that came out of the second CD were the ones DJ Kane sang. Franki J is much better on his own, singing the music he sings now. He really wasn’t a Kumbia King. It’s unfortunate that AB couldn’t take care of this original group, that’s where the money was, not with Abel, Pee Wee, or Pangi. For gods sake, this NINO guy is a joke. Why would you need to add all these characters to dance around like fools. AB is greedy, taking money from these guys. While he was in his hotel suites, eating at fancy resturants, the other shared rooms and borrowed money from each other just to eat. Also, making the guys sit in wait in the bus, while he and his flavor of the month went shopping at the malls. Then he wants to blame Cruz for his own ratial slurs………he needs to move on and forget about “Making the Band”.
