The cover of El Satanico Dr. Cadillac shows one of the Fabulosos Cadillacs wearing a Mercedes-Benz logo around his neck à la Mike D, which serves as an indication that the Cadillacs are now incorporating hip-hop into their trademark mixture of ska and salsa. "El Mensaje Soy Yo" uses Public Enemy and Beastie Boys samples and sounds like a Def Jam track circa 1987. "El Golpe de Tu Corazon" is unmistakably patterned after LL Cool J's classic ballad "I Need Love."
