Album Notes & Community Reviews

Following her Polaris Prize-winning debut, the Afro-Indigenous Colombian artist deeply explores her heritage and the complex, often racist realities of her home country. The production masterfully fuses traditional Palenque percussion and cumbia rhythms with modern, sweeping electronic art-pop. It acts as both a vibrant, joyful celebration of indigenous culture and a biting political critique.
