    Los Rakas includes Ricardo Guillam Bethancourt and Abdull Dominguez. Better known as Rico and Dun Dun, they were just toddlers back in 1989. But their memories of that time are vivid. In their song "Invasion of Panama '89," they use archival news clips and somber lyrics to recount the violence that engulfed their Panama City neighborhoods. Like hundreds of Panamanians, Rico's grandfather died in the violence. Rico says he wrote the song so more people, especially Americans, would be aware of the pattern of U-S military intervention in other countries. RICO: "The thing that was going on with Iraq, that kind of reminded me of it. So I'm like, here we go again you know." But don't get the wrong idea. Rico and his cousin Dun Dun, now in their early 20s, have lived half their lives in the U.S. And they say they're grateful for all it has given them. Their debt to this country is apparent in their music. English and Spanish take turns over beats that merge Bay Area hip hop with the Caribbean rhythms of Panama. They have just released their second CD Panabay Twist 2: La Tanda del Bus.

    Tonite: 26 June 2010 - Cuba Canta con Emiliano Echeverria - KPFA FM

    Radio Cuba Canta welcomes the summer with a potpurri of some of that great Cuban music “you can’t get enuf of!” We’ll begin with some music for the Orishas then to some Rumba and early Son. We’ll hear some Danzones from the near and distant past plus some 1950s Charanga sounds, and feature a tribute to the life and music of Francisco Aguabella.


    The second hour we will discuss the current efforts to bring Cuban musicians to perform in the United States, include a mix of some 60s and 70s Cuban sounds, the Community Music Calendar from Ron Flores, and conclude with some great Timba and Cuban Hip-hop……..
