La Dame Blanche
presents her 4th album "Ella" and paints a portrait of 10 women, from the witch to the hitchhiker.
From Pinar del Rio to Paris, via Mexico City and Buenos Aires, the Cuban singer, flautist and percussionist
La Dame Blanche
has established herself in a few years as a true alchemist of Afro-Latin hip-hop.
Behind this character, inspired by legends from around the world, also present in the
Cuban
santeria
, is revealed
Yaite Ramos Rodriguez
, daughter of
Jesus "Aguaje" Ramos
, artistic director of
the Orquesta Buena Vista Social Club
.
Her fourth album
ELLA
is the result of her reflection on the status of women in the world.
She painted there the portraits of ten mothers, sisters, friends and strangers met on the roads.
A committed project where she delivers a strong message on the refusal of violence, assertiveness, sexual freedom and resilience.
His haughty voice, his precise flow, his feline grace and the help of Afro-Cuban spirits, create in concert a unique atmosphere imbued with mysticism.
