El Bombon De Colombia Install — Esperanza Gomez Cuban Kings

By: The Salsa Heritage Desk

Before her "install" with the Cuban Kings, El Bombon was a great song for social dancing. After the video went viral (accumulating over 4 million organic views across re-uploaded clips), the song became a competition standard for salsa suelta solos. esperanza gomez cuban kings el bombon de colombia install

Esperanza’s specific movements—the pause on the trumpet, the head roll during the chorus—have been "installed" into the curriculum of salsa schools in Cali (Colombia), Tokyo, and Tel Aviv. She effectively created a meme (in the original Dawkins sense): a unit of cultural imitation. By: The Salsa Heritage Desk Before her "install"

I believe in love. I believe in compassion. I believe in human rights. I believe that we can afford to give more of these gifts to the world around us because it costs us nothing to be decent and kind and understanding. And, I want you to know that when you land on this site, you are accepted for who you are, no matter how you identify, what truths you live, or whatever kind of goofy shit makes you feel alive! Rock on with your bad self!
