El Individuo - “Obvio”
El Individuo’s “Obvio” is a fusion of rap with melodic singing — and a cry for honesty with a uniquely Afro-Cuban soul sound. It tells the harsh yet familiar story of a love gone wrong over ominous drill beats. With features from Dariel Cabrera and Franko, “Obvio” is part of El Individuo’s latest EP No Me Mientan. It’s also the first from the space called El Espacio, where he makes music with different Cuban artists. “I wanted to collaborate with friends and this is what came out,” he told Remezcla, smiling because it was a song about heartbreak and trust. The chorus sings “deja atrás el odio” soulfully, while El Individuo raps “Confiésame todas tus dudas de paso” in his signature fresh style. –Amanda Alcantara
