Orishas put Cuban hip-hop on the map with their breakthrough album A Lo Cubano in 2000. Despite being based in France, the band amalgamated Afro/Cuban 'son' folk and rap with the rhythmic street swagger of Havana to create their bustling sound. Groundbreaking Latin tunes with socially conscious lyrics have resonated across mainstream media, with peers and in the hearts of fans across the world. Punchy hooks and irresistible old-school appeal have seen them pick up two GRAMMY® nominations, and have helped them to popularise Cuban urban culture.
