About
Tiny Desk celebrated Latinx Heritage Month with an El Tiny takeover featuring diverse musicians, including Tokischa, a Dominican rapper known for her unapologetic performances that challenge respectability politics. Bringing her dembow tracks to NPR, Tokischa blended Caribbean and Latin American genres while emphasizing themes of female sexual autonomy and queerness. Her bold artistic expression stands out, drawing attention and sparking discussions on empowerment and identity.
Tokischa, born Tokischa Altagracia Peralta Juárez, rose to prominence after signing with Paulus Music and releasing her hit single "Pícala." Known for collaborating with global artists like Rosalía and J Balvin, Tokischa's music often explores themes around sexual activity, leading to her being labeled as controversial in the media.
Her recent Tiny Desk performance showcased a unique interpretation of her music, highlighting her charisma and fearless approach to addressing societal norms through her art. As a rising star in the music industry, Tokischa's unapologetic style continues to make waves and challenge perceptions.
