Hip Hop is Global :: Los Aldeanos
The beauty of hip hop is that it's the voice of the people. It's the stories of underrepresented communities. That's what you get w/Los Aldeanos.
Check out the duo in this long form video. Love the beat. Love to hear them speak in detail about their passion for hip hop. I only watched this video, but I am anxious to check out the rest of their project. Nice vid too. Thanks for the subtitles.

Hip hoppers, even if you can't get out of your hood, you can be inspired by someone else's ... kfox.

“This is dedicated to those who want to destroy our dreams, because to take a song from one heart to another we don’t need letters of invitation, nor emigration clearances, we only need the right cause.”
-Los Aldeanos
The exclusive international on-line release of the music video for “La Naranja se Picó” by Cuban rap duo Los Aldeanos is set for May 7th at: http://www.emetreceproductions.com/ElB_La_Naranja_se_Pico.html
“La Naranja se Picó” is the furious response by El B for being negated his Cuban emigration clearance two years in a row to represent as Cuba’s national freestyle champion at Red Bull’s international “Cockfight” competition in Venezuela (2007) and Mexico (2008). The song appears in Los Aldeanos’ recent album, El Atropello.
