Robe L Ninho is Cuban rapper, producer, activist, and cosmetologist Roberto Álvarez who is revolutionizing social awareness and Afro identity in the Spanish-speaking world through his music. His live performances are more than just a show - they're an experience where the band's musical excellence connects seamlessly with his powerful messages and striking aesthetics.
A range of sounds that travel from ancestral Cuba to the contemporary beats of Afrobeat and Dancehall. A musical explosion filled with coherent, inspiring, and constructive messages. With an extraordinary stage presence, it's impossible not to dance and enjoy while listening to profound, meaningful lyrics.
