The acclaimed band Calle 13 from Puerto Rico performed for the first time in Cuba, and the concert was no less than historic. Introducing the band to half a million people crowding into Havana’s Anti-Imperialist Plaza, Cuban crooner Kelvis Ochoa – who had fulfilled a long-time dream of bringing Calle 13 to Cuba – shouted, “This is a party for you!” Calle 13 and their Havana fans proceeded to party to the band’s undeniably danceable but lyrically ambitious tunes, music that might be dismissed as “reggaetón” but only if you haven’t been paying attention. “Alternative reggaetón” is how some music journalists have described it, but whatever you call it, Calle 13 in Havana were a fuego, as in off the hook, as in you should have been there. watch video footage from the last concert.
