Abstract

The hip-hop group Orishas provides an incisive example of the new terms of Cuban cultural production in the post-Cold War diaspora. They began their dizzy ride on the wave of global fascination with Cuban culture with the debut album A lo cubano (1999), in which they compromised with international market forces while attempting to maintain their cubanía, their own sense of Cubanness. This first release is remarkable for its commercial success not only abroad but also at home. While the music, lyrics, and videos associated with the album revel in cultural symbols only fully appreciated by Cubans who survived the worst years of the Special Period, they also commodify Afro-Cuban culture, making it palatable to a range of international listening publics.
古巴Hip-Hop走向全球:Orishas' A lo cubano
嘻哈乐队Orishas为冷战后古巴侨民的新文化生产提供了一个深刻的例子。在全球对古巴文化的迷恋浪潮中,他们以首张专辑《A lo cubano》(1999年)开始了他们令人头晕目眩的旅程,在这张专辑中,他们与国际市场力量妥协,同时试图保持cubanía,他们自己的古巴感。这部电影的首次发行不仅在国外,而且在国内都取得了巨大的商业成功。虽然与专辑相关的音乐、歌词和视频充满了文化符号,只有在特殊时期最糟糕的岁月中幸存下来的古巴人才能完全欣赏,但它们也将古巴黑人文化商品化,使其受到一系列国际听众的欢迎。
