Cuban hip hop pioneers Orishas throw a 'Havana highway celebration' on HBO Latino

Hip hop and block events have all the time been tied on the hip.
The Grammy-successful rap neighborhood Orishas headlined such an experience earlier than hundreds of their fellow Cubans on the streets of Havana in March 2018, serenading the group with their usual Cuban song-infused variant of hip hop.
The performance, airing as "Havana road birthday party gifts Orishas" on March 15 on HBO Latino, featured the community's top-quality hits like "A lo Cubano," "537 C.U.B.A.," and "characterize" — and was their first concert on the island in well-nigh two many years.
It became rather a homecoming.
"We noted that if we go back to Cuba, I want to go returned for my enthusiasts, chums, family unit, for everyone," Orishas' lead singer, Havana native Yotuel Romero, 42, tells Viva. "That became the theory. It became on no account intended to sell tickets.
"Cuba gave us the chance to delivery this and increase as artists," he provides. "So when Cuba says that Orishas can function in Cuba after 18 years considering the fact that the release of 'A lo Cubano,' we jumped at the opportunity."
The neighborhood — which is in the middle of the Orishas/Cubavera Origen Tour that included a stop in manhattan on March 14 at Stage 48 — turned into centered in 1998. in the beginning referred to as Amenaza (possibility), Orishas, which refers to African deities in the Yoruba faith, is rounded out by using Roldán González Rivero and Ruzzo Hiram Riverí Medina. After touring to Paris for a live performance, the community stayed for respectable, organising an international following.
The Cuban trio got compliment with their debut album, "A lo Cubano," in 2000, and their sophomore effort, "Emigrante," received the 2003 Latin Grammy award for gold standard Rap/Hip Hop Album. They split up in 2009, but reunited seven years later to begin working on the Grammy-nominated "gourmet."
below the stewardship of J Balvin, Farruko and different good Latin acts of the 2010s, Spanish rap and reggae emerged from a late-2000s lull. moreover, Romero all started noticing Orishas' have an effect on on up-and-coming artists in Cuba.
that's when he had a lightbulb moment.
"I noted to myself, 'Why are not we getting into on this? here is the ultimate moment," says Romero. "(In 2009), we each had an urge to do our own factor, as a result of we were an awful lot younger and had the power for that.
"on the equal time," he adds, "we on no account wanted any of our individual work to debris or be perplexed with the sound that we produce as a unit."

Now Defunkt’s Runaway is one of those tracks that grabs you

  "Now Defunkt’s Runaway is one of those tracks that grabs you from the first bluesy heartbeat of the intro and doesn’t let go. In an era where you can tune out with a tap, this song pulls you in with a vibe that feels both nostalgic and boldly forward-looking. The bluesy riffs ring out right away, setting a space where the listener can settle in and brace for a story that feels big, like a page from a graphic novel that’s about to come alive. The songwriting here is something to applaud. It’s got that old-school flavor—the kind of thing your parents might hum along to—mixed with a futuristic spark that hints at adventures not yet lived. It’s as if the track invites you to step into a time-warped alley where the streetlights flicker with neon possibilities. Astrology gets a wink and a nod, painting a portrait of a young renegade who’s more superhero than stereotype. It’s a mission—mighty and personal at once—to remind us that youth has a voice, and when it finds its rhythm, it can...
