Meet Gifted Hands.
There are moments when someone’s voice stops you mid-scroll. Not just because of the sound, but because of the story behind it. A voice that doesn’t beg for attention, but commands it. Not with noise, but with truth.

Rikki La Rouge covers Thunder by Imagine Dragons
my version of thunder by Imagine Dragons is throwback to Latin music of the 1950s. It’s cha-cha mambo. I love how intense my version of thunder by . It’s Latin music with English language lyrics. It’s tropical music Ingles. It’s got drive and intensity. I wanted to be as if not a little bit more intense than the original version of thunder by the Imagine Dragons. once again when I was recording this, I was songs that were relevant around that time and this was one of the songs that I really paid attention to I thought it would’ve been cool to do a classic Latin version of thunder and so I went for it and I’m glad that I did.

The J Balvin remix contest of his song Nuestro Momento
Some time ago J Balvin and some liquor 🥃 company held a contest to remix his song Nuestra Momento. I was one of the contestants i remixed a version of the track too. My track is what I consider to be Samba electronica. What you hear with my vocals and his vocal track is call and response. I never found out who wound up winning the competition. I did win as we all did by getting the chance to at least have it heard and also just to remix a track and say that I have a version of it myself.

I had always thought the sky belonged above us. Vast. Blue. Infinite. But that was before the Fall — before the Earth cracked and flipped, and what we once called “up” became something else entirely.

Babalu Aye cover by Rikki La Rouge
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=1ZY8X43FIz0&pp=ygUVUmlra2kgbGEgcm91Z2UgYmFiYWx1 what you are hearing in this article is my cover of the iconic Cuban song Babalu Aye. Like Willy Chirino says about himself, hijo de Babalu I believe in Babalu myself too. Babalu was introduced to American audiences on the famed classic and iconic 1950 sitcom starring Lucille Ball and Desi I love Lucy. Desi is underrated and a genius who deserves to be more celebrated than he was. He was truly and over looked icon. Everyone focused on Lucille Ball but they overlooked Desi . Also, that’s something I’ll get into another article.
