.Ana Tijoux Raps at The Ritz

Born in France to Chilean exiles who fled the fascist Pinochet regime, Ana Tijoux could not return to her parents’ homeland until her teens, but when she did, she quickly took the Chilean rap scene by storm. Over two decades later, her sound has evolved to embrace diverse influences from Andean folk to horn-heavy neo-soul. Rolling Stone describes her as “nothing less than a Latin American Lauryn Hill.” She is known for her fervent commitment to nonviolence in light of the political and social justices that have shaped her life—a stance that infuses her songs with profound grace.
