Tokischa has become one of the most recognizable faces in urban music. The Dominican artist has conquered playlists with hits like ‘Delincuente’, ‘Perra’ and ‘Estilazo’. She has also collaborated with some of the biggest stars in the world, from our beloved Rosalía to J Balvin. She even released a new version of ‘Hung Up’ with the Queen of Pop herself, Madonna! So yes, it’s a fact to say that Tokischa is making history.

With such a resume, it’s no wonder that the 27-year-old has been one of the headliners at the Primavera Sound 2023 fest. The artist has been in Barcelona, Madrid and Oporto during the past week. And it was in the Spanish capital where our reporter Cris Regatero had the opportunity to chat with her for five minutes. It happened just before Tokischa took the stage and the nerves were palpable.

«I’m eager to warm up», says the singer as soon as she sits on the sofa at the LOS40 Stand. And it’s no surprise that she needs to warm up. Not only her voice but also her body. Because Tokischa moves like a true queen on stage. «I draw inspiration from my music, from perreo, from fun and from dembow», she says about her show.

The Importance of her Lyrics

With so much media exposure, it’s common for many artists who started with raw and explicit lyrics to soften their discourse. But Tokischa, far from doing so, continues to trust the essence that has brought her here. And we love that she has decided to take these reins!

«I don’t think my discourse has softened. I’m very honest, very clear and very free», the artist confesses about her lyrics.

About her Possible Session with Bizarrap

Considering that Tokischa is one of the most sought-after artists in the urban movement, many have wondered if she will have a session with the most beloved producer of the moment, Bizarrap. «We have met, but we haven’t released a session yet. Anything is possible», she concludes.

Furthermore, Tokischa has revealed that after Madonna called into Spanish TV show ‘La Resistencia» thanks to her, they talked again. The queen of pop didn’t take offense at all. On the contrary! «I have a very nice relationship with her. She’s really cool», she concludes.
