about

The second single from ESSO Afrojam Funkbeat's 2020 album Xicago.
La Luz is a traditional Cumbia with a three part harmony vocal lead.

*We are experiencing and living through difficult and turbulent times as a generation and as a people right now in the United States. The COVID-19 pandemic coupled with the Black Lives Matter racial justice movement make the current social climate difficult to navigate, but we believe it very urgent and necessary to address. The band collectively believe we will get through this by staying safe, speaking up, protesting peacefully, and continuing the work of growth as a people and as artists. A lot of our music speaks to our socio-political beliefs and our experiences growing up in Chicago. As a multi-cultural music project, we recognize the historic importance of our combined influences and offer our respect to all who came before us and inspired us. We stand in solidarity and power with our Black and Brown brothers and sisters. Now and forever! We will continue to write, record, and release new music to document, not only these tumultuous political times we live in, but to express the emotions we feel to heal ourselves and each other.

Thank you for being here with us,
ESSOcrew

lyrics

Yo no quiero dinero mama, ya me sabes muy bien
Yo no quiero los juegos jamas ya me sabes muy bien

Orgullo tenia y plata tambien
Coches y ropa dinero me sobra
Esas cositas no son de cualquiera
Orgullo tenia y plata tambien
Coches y ropa tequila me sobra
Esas cositas no valen la pena

Solo quiero darte amor ante de que te vayas

La luz q me das, la quiero para tras
Seria incapaz no puedo vivir esta vida, seria tan frio
sin tu calorcito
