On today’s very special episode of Songmess we are finally doing an English episode for the Dominican series, diving deep into the history and cultural significance of dembow with journalist, designer and media personality Jennifer Mota! Known for her work in publications like Remezcla, Refinery 29, People en Español and more, Jenny has become one of the foremost storytellers documenting Dominican dembow in English language media.
Today’s conversation delves into her personal history with music and media, we break down some of the key players of dembow, and the many social challenges the genre has faced over the years. We’re also discussing ‘El Movimiento,” her work alongside Katelina Eccleston of Reggaeton Con La Gata on the new podcast Dímelo Contando, and so much more!
Playlist: The Weeknd, Pablo Piddy, Milka La Más Dura, The Smiths, Anthony Santos and Fefita La Grande.
