This week we are exploring the musical influences of Choc Quib Town from Columbia. The band is influenced by their culture, creating a mixture of hip hop, reggae and funk to produce their electric sounds. They describe their music best by stating:
“As a group, our main objective is for our culture and music to no longer be alien in our own country, and even in the world. We want to be part of those spaces where they have marginalized us, as an ethnic group and art form.”

Another great pick. I especially like gentle marimba pattern juxtaposed against the angry vocals in the beginning.
