Album Review
La Doña – “Algo Nuevo” – [Self Release]
puplaif 3/15/2022 12-inch, Hip Hop
La Doña is Cecilia Peña-Govea and she does exactly what she wants. La Doña operates across multiple spheres of influence, as a daughter, an educator, as an artist in a constant state of change. Growing up in San Francisco, she started playing in her family’s mariachi band at the age of 7 where she learned to play trumpet. La Doña is very proud to have self-released Algo Nuevo in 2020.
La Doña boldly presents her feminist perspective through poetic, lyrical messages that cover topics from gentrification to the push and pull of love. Spanish is the dominant language throughout the album, with sprinkles of English on a few bilingual tracks. Set to genre-blending rhythms, La Doña incorporates elements of Bay Area hip hop, reggaeton, son jarocho, and more. The overall sound is catchy and highly dance-able. 100% hyphey maravilla. ¡Que la disfruten!
