Havana-Cultura
Gente de Zona
The sea, Alamar, The Malecón
My favourite place is mainly the beach environment, as I love the beach and its atmosphere, the sea, those are the things that I like.
What is my favourite place? The place where I am now reminds me very much of the place where Gente de Zona started out. My neighbourhood, called Alamar, a corner where you sat with just one microphone and when you had four fans, I like all those buildings, the rap festivals, the rap meetings, the folk clubs, very much.
As for my favourite place in Havana, I like the Malecón, the Malecón (the ocean-front boulevard). Because that is the place where every Cuban goes and sits, and I also compose, I have composed many things on the Malecón. And when I go far away and want to feel calm, I think of the Malecón, I don’t know why, because it is my favourite place.
