Welcome to Miami's Calle Ocho, a street in Miami which allows us to catch a glimpse not only of Cuban culture, but also the various other Latin American cultures which merge and congregate there.

This love song tells the story of a lost opportunity and a new adventure, all in the same night.

¿Qué bolá? That’s ¿Qué pasa? (What’s Up?) in Havana, where your “homeboy” is your “monina,” your “consorte,” or simply ‘asere.’ Here we find musical giants Orishas back in the old barrio of Vedado.

Orishas is the most famous Cuban band of recent years. They have achieved fame and glory all over Europe and Latin America. Even those who don’t understand their lyrics (sometimes hard enough even for Spanish speakers) can’t seem to keep their hips and shoulders still.

Even if Orishas left Cuba looking for new fortunes, they never forgot where they came from. In Nací Orishas, they’re singing to the same streets where they grew up.

The Cuban band Orishas went all the way from starving artists to well fed ambassadors of Latin Hip Hop. Let’s listen in as even Spaniards ask for some explanation of the Cuban slang and cultural references found in the song “El Kilo.”

Antonio shares with us some fascinating facts about rumba, a popular Cuban rhythm, from its African roots to its influence on other musical genres.

Meet Henry and Naomi, who represent the Cuban booth at the International Countries Fair in Fuengirola, Málaga, Spain. In this video, they will tell us about some very typical things from Cuba, such as its dances, festive folks, food, and, of course, the spectacular mojitos!

This time, Henry and Naomi offer us a glimpse into their traditional Cuban dance show, including performances of such dances as Yoruba, Cuban son, salsa casino, and more!

In this song, the Cuban group Warapo sings about a fiery woman who does what she wants to without caring what others think. Not unlike Frank Sinatra, she does it “her way” (a su manera).
