EP#49 AFROBEAT, DOMINICANIDAD & VERSATILITY FT. LA GABI

La Gata sits down with Dominican artist La Gabi for a conversation that's equal parts real and inspiring. la Gabi breaks down her new song Maldita Guerra — a kizomba-infused AfroBeat anthem about finally walking away from a love that was never going to change — and opens up about the personal experiences that made the song hit so close to home. But the conversation goes way deeper than music. La Gabi talks about the years she spent studying and refining her sound, why she believes an artist's identity is everything, and what it really means to go against the grain in an industry full of trends. She shares her vision of being the Latina Ciara — a full performer who dances, commands a stage, and leaves a trademark. We also get into Afro-Latina identity and what it means to represent in spaces that don't always see you, the importance of women supporting women in the Latin music industry, and how La Gabi keeps herself grounded through faith, volleyball, and knowing when to put the phone down. This one's for the girls building something real.  Follow Reggaeton Con La Gata on Instagram on Threads on YouTube on TikTok xoxo GataSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
