Rising up! The official release of my latest song and music video “YA”

It really is true that life imitates art and art imitates life, it’s a cycle that seems to take a life of its own; creating a beautiful symbiosis.

YA is not only an original musical release, but a project that has carried me along in the last few years of my life since it was conceived many moons ago. The conception took place in LA, it blossomed in Colombia's Caribbean coast and culminated in Paris, France. I have felt incredibly inspired to search deep within me, expand my musical horizons and explore my  homeland, Colombia, which I was obliged to leave at a young age and for 10 years I was an undocumented immigrant and was unable to leave.  

“YA” has dance hall, Cumbia rhythms and it is layered with authentic tropical indigenous instruments.  Aside from all the musical vibrations that soar deeply and powerfully through me I am also feeling a powerful sense of responsibility as a multilingual citizen of the world to infuse my art and music with messages of unity, strength and the life enriching force of love.  YA evolved into a protest song that has a tropical danceable flavor, but the underlying message is for all of us as a people to rise up powerfully, to stay united and to love more ferociously.  

At the end of the day, Love will conquer it all. 

 I’m beyond thrilled to announce the official release of YA
