In January, the 27-year-old was signed to a label, and currently is preparing to release her debut album.

Live From Latino USA: Yasser Tejeda & Palotré
Globally, the musical genres most people associate with Dominicans are merengue and bachata, but there’s another set of rhythms that are essential to the spirit of the country, and that’s Afro-Dominican roots music.
Yasser Tejeda & Palotré blend some of the country’s black roots rhythms like palo and salve, with jazz and hip hop to bring a new spin to local sounds—and to reimagine what it means to be Dominican.
For this latest Live From Latino USA, the group performs “Nuestras Raíces” and “Amor Arrayano” from their latest album, Kijombo.
On Tuesday, Yasser Tejeda & Palotré will be featured on Latino USA‘s latest episode, so check it out wherever you get your podcasts.

Live From Latino USA: Jessie Reyez
Jessie Reyez is a Colombian-Canadian singer and songwriter known for her mesmerizing voice and gripping lyrics. Her breakout single about heartbreak titled “Figures” made it on Canada’s Top 100 in 2017, and her EP Being Human in Public has been nominated for Best Urban Contemporary Album at the upcoming 2020 Grammys.
And while her fans see themselves in her love songs, it is her truth-telling via music that has allowed Reyez to begin leaving her mark. At the height of the #MeToo movement, she performed “Gatekeeper” on late-night U.S. shows, a song about her experience with sexism in the music industry. And towards the end of 2019, she released “Far Away,” a track that sheds light on immigration and family separation.
Jessie Reyez stopped by NPR's Latino USA‘s office to perform “Far Away,” and her Spanish-language song titled “Sola.”
