Show notes

When our friend Lucia Leandro Gimeno passed, y’all were the sweetest, most understanding listeners we could have possibly imagined, so we wanted to give a little pride month homenaje to our dear friend so y’all could get to know him a bit too.

This week, we talk about LL’s legacy as an activist and healer, the music that LL loved, and songs that helped us process the grief. Featuring music by Bomba Estereo, Pitbull ft. Lil John, Raices Habaneras, and La India. Show notes: https://bit.ly/3vjt4W4 Follow us: instagram.com/RadioMenea twitter.com/RadioMenea facebook.com/RadioMenea tinyletter.com/RadioMenea
