Cuban singer Daymé Arocena embraces the sounds of Latin pop on her newest album, ‘Alkemi,’ making her experiences as an Afro Latina the focus of the project.
Daymé Arocena believes every person of African descent born outside of the continent is given a mission in life. “You have to ask yourself, 'Why wasn't I born in Africa? Why was I born in a place where I have to fight just to be who I am?'' Arocena said. The 32-year-old musician grew up in Havana during Cuba’s “special period” — a decade-long economic depression that hit the country at the start of the 1990s.
Stuck in an unfamiliar country, she began to second-guess leaving Cuba. In July 2020, Beyoncé released “Black Is King,” the pop star's reimagination of Disney’s “The Lion King.” The musical film and the accompanying album made Arocena remember why she got into music in the first place. “Without this situation, 'Alkemi' wouldn't exist,” said Arocena.
