We’ve only got one week left of Women’s History Month but still so much ground to cover. And for today’s edition of New Music Friday we’re going south of the border for Latin hip-hop’s leading queer female figure, Mexico rapper Niña Dioz. Beginning with a song placement in Grand Theft Auto V five years back, Dioz has only managed to up the ferocity, collaborations, and club bangers into a stratosphere of sonic quality.
Today Niña Dioz released her latest LP, Amor, Locura y Otros Vicios, a dozen-track package (six old, six new) that has plenty of spice on the solo numbers and a little bit of extra panache on its collaborations, which make up half the record. Amor rumbles and simmers throughout and is guaranteed to make your weekend bounce more than normal with album standouts like “El Huracán”!
