Las Panteras

After having participated in numerous musical projects, all over the world, alongside fellow artists such as Omar Sosa or Chucho Valdès, both Cuban singers « Martica » and « Eliene » have now thrown themselves, wholeheartedly, into their own personal project together. Hasta Cuando? a project imagined and written by Martha "Martica" Galarraga and Eliene Castillo, two Afro-Cuban panthers, two free artists, convinced and liberated feminists, two sensitive, rebellious and passionate activists...
“Our roots are in Africa, our bodies are in Cuba, and our arms are drawn to soul, funk, and reggae. Our message is imbued with Latino Afro-feminism.” Martha e Eliene.

It's a powerful album. Hasta Cuándo resonates as a musical cry against misogyny and racism. Led by two Afro-Cuban musicians, this project blends militant reggae and Black Panther legacy with funk, rap, and electro sounds in ten fierce and sensual tracks.
They move forward together, heads held high, voices warm, drums as their heritage. They do not claim a feminism that divides, but a feminism that unites, that breathes, that dances.
With this album, Las Panteras do not simply mix genres: they reinvent a decidedly contemporary Cuban music.
An album that roars without shouting, that caresses before it scratches. Here, feminism makes no apologies: it dances, it sings, it loves, it resists.
Their Afro-Cuban universe, imbued with modernity, blends traditional rhythms, sensual melodies, and powerful lyrics. Somewhere between Marie NDiaye and Angela Davis, between street culture and poetry, Las Panteras deliver music that questions the world while celebrating life.
