In 2006, Ozomatli were invited by the U.S. State Department to serve as official Cultural Ambassadors on a series of government-sponsored international tours. The band has since traveled to Asia, Africa, South America, the Middle East, Tunisia, India, Jordan, Nepal, Myanmar, Vietnam, Thailand, and China.[15] In late 2006, shortly before the release of Don't Mess With the Dragon, DJ Spinobi left the band to pursue personal projects (but stuck around until the album's release, as he appears in the photos and is credited as a member). This was the end of the longest lasting Ozomatli lineup, and the first of many lineup changes that would occur over the next year and a half. April 3, 2007, saw the release of their fourth studio album Don't Mess With The Dragon, which was co-produced by K. C. Porter and released on Concord Records. The genre-crossing album was written at a local Los Angeles Latino art gallery, Tropico de Nopal. The album includes songs such as "After Party", which pays homage to old-school Chicano R&B, "When I Close My Eyes", which nods back to Fishbone and Oingo Boingo, "La Segunda Mano", which features the vocals of Quetzal's Martha Gonzales blending son jarocho with hip-hop, "City of Angels", which celebrates the city of Los Angeles, and "Temperatura", which was inspired by the May 2006 pro-immigration marches.[16] The band also experimented with a more accessible Latin-pop sound on songs like "Can't Stop" and "Here We Go", and for the first time featured more English lyrics than Spanish lyrics. On September 20, 2007, Ozomatli announced that MC Jabu was leaving the group on amicable terms.[17] He would not be officially replaced, although Tre Hardson would take his place on tour in 2007 and 2008. In early 2008, the group did a song for the Los Angeles Dodgers called "Can't Stop the Blue", their first recording with Tre Hardson. In the video, LA drummer Chris Cano is seen in place of Calire. Shortly thereafter, Sheffer Bruton and Tre Hardson were no longer seen playing with the group, and Mario Calire appeared back on the drumseat. In the summer of 2008, Ozomatli announced Chali 2na would be joining them for their Fall 2008 tour, although he did not permanently rejoin the band.[18] Later that year, group members Wil-dog and Justin contributed their voices to the Konami music game Dance Dance Revolution X as in-game announcers. 2010–present: Stripped-down lineup[edit] In 2010, Ozomatli released their fifth full-length album, "Fire Away", which was recorded by a stripped-down lineup, featuring the six constant members plus Carire on drums. Justin Porée, in addition to his percussion duties, also became the band's only MC on the album and also sang some lead vocals as well. Bassist Abers also got his first lead vocal spot on the song 'Caballito.' While the band's sound remained an eclectic mix, there was a noticeable drop in the influence of Latin musics, and not many lyrics in Spanish. Several of the songs featured a more accessible, R&B-based sound. The album also had fewer overtly political songs, although the track 'Gay Vatos in Love' made a clear statement of support for LGBT rights. In 2010, Ozomatli helped celebrate the Boston Pops 125th Anniversary, accompanied by the Boston Symphony Orchestra.[19] Since that first orchestral collaboration, they have gone on to perform with the National Symphony Orchestra at the Kennedy Center, the Colorado Symphony, the San Diego Symphony, and the New York Pops.[15] Ozomatli made an appearance at TEDxSF – the first musical talk ever given at any TED conference – mixing discussion and sound to explore the challenges and promises of musical identities in a global age.[15] Ozomatli has also been involved in composing and scoring and contributing music to Happy Feet 2[20] and Elmo's Musical Monsterpiece[21] for Warner Brothers Interactive, SIMS for EA Games,[22] music for PBS Kids,[23] the films A Better Life[24] and Harlistas,[25] and for the TV Show Standup Revolution on Comedy Central.[26] In this period of time, the band focused on Ozomatli Presents Ozokidz, a special family-friendly set geared towards performing for children and adults alike. The album was released on Hornblow Recordings in September 2012.[27] The next record was Place in the Sun released in 2014, and featuring Dave Stewart's production and co-writing, released on Vanguard. The album featured somewhat of a return to the Latin-flavored sounds of the band's earlier work, with more lyrics in Spanish than the previous two albums, although English remained the primary language. It was recorded by the same lineup as the previous album, with Carire on drums. Calire subsequently left the band, and percussionist Jiro Yamaguchi took over the drum seat, leaving the band with six members. Ozomatli celebrated their 20th anniversary as a performing band in 2015, with all remaining members having been in the band since its debut album, The band's next project, released in May 2017, was Nonstop Mexico to Jamaica, an album of songs that have been a big part of the Mexican and Mexican-American community's heritage, culling from Selena, Cafe Tacuba, Mana, and many others. As reflected in the title, the songs are approached reggae style and the project was being produced by Jamaican reggae legends, Sly and Robbie. Although the album contains be some English-language lyrics, the album was the band's first Spanish-dominated release since Street Signs. In 2021, Ozomatli released a cover of Ramon Ayala's "La Rama Del Mezquite", featuring Cherine Anderson.[28] As part of their 25th anniversary, the band also announced a new album in development, to be released via Blue Élan Records.[citation needed] Social and political activism[edit] Ozomatli create music to: give voice to and reveal the culture and lives of Latinos;[29] fight for workers' rights;[30] and promote a global unity within both the city and the world. They promote this through their music, during their TEDxSF talk, and as Cultural Ambassadors of the US.
