Get drenched with the West Coast swagger Star2’s focus single, Mamacita featuring Luh Kel and rising Ka-ren artist Luii Sodolo. The track has upbeat and catchy hooks capturing carefree and energizing beats which feels like a perfect anthem for summer.
Star2 is a Thai refugee who was forced to flee from his homeland due to widespread human rights abuses by the Burmese military. There is something really special about artists whose journeys are testament of resilience, whose art reflects their upbringing and culture, shaped by personal history. His upcoming EP No Place Like Home is worth anticipating as it stands to be his most personal project — connecting with his Ka-ren heritage, an Indigenous ethnic group from Burma with rich culture and tradition.
His focus single Mamacita offers a bright and feel-good mood with its culturally rich production. The featured artists Luh Kel and Luii Sodolo also bring an extra burst of energy, partnered with the creative and colorful animation by Josh The Artist. It’s Latin vibes, with a hint of R&B and hip-hop is a cherry on top. It also has playful yet romantic lyrics, which feels like summer afternoon drive or a party at the beach
If you’re looking for a song to match the sunny days, Mamacita’s a great choice to add to your playlist for your next summer getaway.
