Five years after Castro's death, unprecedented anti-government protests have erupted across the island and a hip-hop song that transposes the authoritarian leader's famous catchphrase became the anthem of the movement.
is a Spanish hip-hop song that was nominated last week for"song of the year" at the Latin Grammys. Amid protests in Cuba in July, the song went viral, becoming a rallying cry for voices of dissent within the island and the hashtag of SOS Cuba -- an international movement advocating for the Cuban people.People take part in a demonstration to support the government of the Cuban President Miguel Diaz-Canel in Havana, on July 11, 2021.
According to Maria Isabel Alfonso, professor of Cuban literature and culture at St. Joseph's College, a message of"hope and rebirth" is appealing to many young Cubans because they are"tired of the old rhetoric.
Osorbo has been in prison since May, according to Bueno, and over the summer, El Funky shared on Instagram that he was placed on house arrest. But both artists have continued to speak out. "Now it is the phrase that we are truly chanting every time we are going to protest -- whether in Madrid, in Milan, in France, at the Vatican, at the White House, with other Cubans, at the United Nations," he said.
For Bueno, this has meant that he has been unable to send money to his mother, who inspired him to become a musician and is suffering from Alzheimer's disease. Singer Yotuel Romero addresses protesters gathered in front of the Versailles restaurant as they show support for the people in Cuba who have taken to the streets there to protest on July 11, 2021, in Miami.
