Rita Indiana is one of the hottest acts to come out of the Dominican Republic in recent memory. Her tropical rhythms, out of this world videos, and striking looks make her a fierce force to be reckoned with and an artist to watch. The multimedia artist has already enjoyed success in other venues, with two published novels (Papi and La estrategia de Chochueca) already under her belt. Now her brand of merengue, palo, and mambo tinged with electronica has her poised to conquer yet another medium. Her debut single is out now* on Dutty Artz Records.
Whether it’s her metaphor as la Virgen, or her possible black face, Rita is cutting edge. Maybe too sharp though? You decide.
