How blessed are you to be alive in a time like this? Alive to catch Sonia Espinosa, stage name Xkeban Jones's, freshest single "White Picket Fences".
Xkeban drops us into a rich, intoxicating hip-hop / jazz fusion beat, accompanied soon after by Dario and his original yet throw-back rap style. A short interlude between voice brings us to the sexy and defiant Xkeban. Her voice, flow, gorgeous poetic lyrics mirror so much the late Left-Eye that I'm honestly excited as fuck for her next project.
Xkeban features Dario Guerrero and their duo of talent and scholarly brilliance destroys stereotypes: "Sonia Espinosa's and Dario Guerrero are both illegal aliens at Harvard. Sonia studies social anthropology and economies, while Dario studies film. Both were unaware of their legal status until high school"
In the midst of election season, where pundits are critical on social issues, Donald Trump has been quite vocal about his disdain for illegal immigrants. "White Picket Fence is a response to Donald Trump's recent remarks about the immigrant community, specifically the undocumented immigrant community".
White Picket Fence celebrates the labor of immigrants and question the hyprocrisy of the American Dream.
