Rodolfo Rensoli

Rodolfo Rensoli is the founder of Grupo Uno who organized the first rap music festival in Cuba in 1995. He initialized the institutionalization of rap in 1997 when he approached Roberto Zurbano, then vice-president of the Asociación Hermanos Saíz (AHS), who proposed Rensoli that the AHS collaborate to the festival.

Prior to getting involved with rap, Rensoli used to promote rock and alternative music in East Havana.

Rodolfo Rensoli has helped rap's emancipation in Cuba by assaulting the press and platforms, including theoretical events on the subject and boosted a coherent discourse on Cuban hip hop and its roots, components or international alternatives, be they American, African, Latin American or Caribbean.
