Hey Mix(ed)tape Listeners! In track 2 of Were You Listening? we analyze the song Bemba Colorá by José Claro Fúmero in the incredible voice of Celia Cruz.
If you're a salsa dancer, you've probably danced or performed to this song at some point. We certainly have. But have you stopped to think about its meaning? This is exactly what our friend and former guest Lauren Wilmore, a dancer and the owner of Made By Lala did. And she asked us. This episode is our answer to her inquiry regarding this very famous song.
In Bemba Colorá, José Claro Fúmero writes, and Celia sings, about the worthlessness of a Black man due to the fact that he has a bemba colorá. Now, what is a bemba colorá or what does it imply? We'll have to dig a little.
Were we listening?
We hope this track helps to add value to your listening and awareness in your dancing!
