Upcoming OLMECA Performances
Tucson, Arizona photoshoot by Joel 'Rage' Garcia
I wrote "A La Cadencia" a few years ago after learning about what was
going on in AZ and after conversations with community folks about it. I decided
to capture some of those words in the song...
"Yo entiendo el
pensamiento, "que estamos pidiendo, cuando segun sin documentos uno no tiene
derechos" Sigamos la verdad de nuestro lado la tenemos. Ya sabemos que las
acciones ilegales son las de ellos!!!"
-lyrics from "A La Cadencia"
Counter Culture Album
In struggle, Olmeca

"Loaded with lyrics that teach our children and community about “who we
are”, Olmeca is using his innate MC skills to teach and uplift humanity just as
the ancient poets and shaman did in the past. Breed with the dignity of the
Zapatistas, the political understanding of Malcom X, and social activism of
Dolores Huerta, we are grateful to the ancestors to have guided this young man
into our presence. In our analysis, Olmeca contributes to Hip Hop being very
much alive, not dead!"
