Who we featured


DJ Leydis
Afro-Cuban DJ who has participated at Paseo Artístico multiple times and who will also participate in our SF MOMA Mini Murals festival in two weeks! DJ Leydis co-created the first all-female DJ mixtape in Cuba, contributing a special blend of new flavor and spirit to the international community. In 2006 DJ Leydis migrated to the United States to expand upon her work as a DJ and has worked with Erykah Badu, Quest Love of the Roots, and other iconic US-based artists. We featured her in El Tecolote in 2019 as part of her performance in Paul’s play “We Have Ire”. I hope to also feature her on Radio Teco in the near future!
