Uwaga "Sophisticated Hippies" Feat Alex Sandunga


Alex Sandunga (born November 26, 1976 in Havana, Cuba) is a rapper, actor and producer, who is known for his eclectic musical career which is always in experimentation and movement. He is currently living in Helsinki, Finland. In 1997 he founded Alto Voltage NAE, an electric and alive rap group that was known by its strong opinions. He became a member of the Asociacion Hermanos Saiz, which supports young artists, i.e. musicians and songwriters. In the association, he became an activist of a hip hop movement and used rather daring lyrics while describing issues such as oppression, racism issues and agony of the people of Cuba.
