Feministing Jamz Jam of the Week: Tamos Redy by Tomasa Del Real & Chico Sonido

Tomasa Del Real is a Chilean tattoo artist and reggaetonera making “reggaeton del futuro” — reggaeton from the future. Her style is sexual and heavy-hitting, and she brings us a new track with Mexicano Chico Sonido.

She’s been on a roll lately, having released another futuristic dembow jam just last week. On Tamos Redy, Tomasa talks about staying on her hustle over a beat that’s made for getting sweaty at the club.

New York, NY

Verónica Bayetti Flores has spent the last years of her life living and breathing reproductive justice. She has led national policy and movement building work on the intersections of immigrants' rights, health care access, young parenthood, and LGBTQ liberation, and has worked to increase access to contraception and abortion, fought for paid sick leave, and demanded access to safe public space for queer youth of color. In 2008 Verónica obtained her Master’s degree in the Sexuality and Health program at Columbia University’s Mailman School of Public Health. She loves cooking, making art, listening to music, and thinking about the ways art forms traditionally seen as feminine are valued and devalued. In addition to writing for Feministing, she is currently spending most of her time doing policy work to reduce the harms of LGBTQ youth of color's interactions with the police and making sure abortion care is accessible to all regardless of their income.

Verónica is a queer immigrant writer, activist, and rabble-rouser.
