Were You Listening? Track 6: Bembelequa [Remix] (English)

Hi Mix(ed)tape listeners! Today we celebrate that a great rumbero is about to be born... or so tells us queen Celia Cruz! In track 6 of Were You Listening? we analyze the song Bembelequa by Celia Cruz.

This song is a request from a dear friend of the podcast, Chicago-based social dancer, clinical research coordinator, and full time twin, Briana Harrison. In "Bembelequa" Celia bears witness to the emergence of a talented new rumbero whose skill symbolizes innovation and transformation that warrants celebration.

Were we listening?

We hope this track helps to add value to your listening and awareness in your dancing!
