Pepe Aguilar's Mexican pride is reflected in the title of his latest CD, "100% Mexicano."

For Aguilar, one of the most popular commercial ranchera singers, the album, which won a Grammy last year for best Mexican-American/Mexican album, marks his return to banda, the regional Mexican music that launched his career in the early 1990s.

Aguilar had taken a hiatus from the style to focus on recording a variety of mariachi, but he says it's time to say it loud and say it proud.
