FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION

"Every genre that ever mattered was created in a community that had little, yet gave the world EVERYTHING.  That is the spirit of my salsa album VIVA."  -Natalis

 

Salsa, bomba yubá, plena, R&B, reggaetón, trap, and pop fuse together to create a bold new sound she calls TropiSoul.  As a woman creating within a traditionally male-dominated genre, Natalis is using VIVA to create more space for women to be seen, heard, and celebrated.

 

Born from profound loss and the decision to choose life, VIVA is an eight-song celebration of life, identity, queer expression, and disability pride. Years after losing her father, grandmother, and grandfather back to back, Natalis returned to the grief she'd buried for years while navigating her own autoimmune health challenges. What emerged was not sorrow, but gratitude and a celebration of life.

ABOUT THE SINGLES

"TRIPLE AMENAZA"

Blurring the lines between salsa, sexuality, and traditional gender roles, "Triple Amenaza" is a playful, provocative celebration of freedom, chemistry, and unapologetic expression.  Featuring Puerto Rican artists Carlos Nevárez and Babywine, each a triple threat in their own right, Natalis brings them together to vibe over Salsa fused with trap.  Queer, playful, and unapologetically sensual, Triple Amenaza flips the traditional script and lets attraction take the lead.

"HASTA EN LA LUNA"

"Hasta en la Luna" is more than a song, it's a place for everyone who has ever felt “ni de aquí, ni de allá”—far from home, yet carrying the customs, memories, and love for their culture wherever they go. Written at RAMPD’s inaugural accessible virtual Songwriting Camp, the song brings contemporary dembow and trap together with Puerto Rican folkloric music rooted in bomba yubá.  The result is an electrifying global performance that carries Puerto Rican roots into a contemporary global soundscape.
