A superstar in the making sits down with La Gata—and nothing is off limits.

In this episode, Lenexx pulls up repping Queens NYC and Santiago RD, bringing her fearless, genre-bending vision to the table. From blending Brazilian funk with reggaeton to building a sound rooted in real life, she opens up about the journey behind her breakout moment with “Vulnerable,” the cultural influences shaping her artistry, and the power of moving off instinct instead of overthinking.

The conversation dives deep: identity, Afro-Latinidad, beauty standards, and the generational shifts she’s navigating as a proud Dominicana. Lenexx reflects on growing up between DR and New York, how community shaped her, and why staying authentic—down to filming videos with her cousins back home—is her biggest strength.

La Gata and Lenexx also get into the realities of the industry: being a young independent artist, protecting your energy, and what it means to be a woman claiming space in music today. From studio respect to spiritual grounding, Lenexx keeps it honest about what it takes to stay centered while everything is moving fast.

Plus, she teases her upcoming project—hinting at more “funketón” and "funkchata" bold fusions, and global collaborations—and shares her dream of continuing to bridge Brazil, the Caribbean, and beyond.

This is a conversation about culture, courage, and carving your own lane—no matter who’s watching.

This week, La Gata sits down with stand-up comedian Erik Rivera for a conversation that’s as hilarious as it is real. From balancing family life and a booming comedy career to unpacking the pressure of representation in Hollywood, Erik keeps it honest about what it takes to make people laugh—and make it matter.

They dive into his creative process, the story behind his bold HBO special Super White, and why authenticity—not stereotypes—is the key to connecting across cultures. Erik opens up about growing up Guatemalan and Puerto Rican, navigating identity, and how a moment watching Coco with his son reshaped how he sees representation on screen.

The conversation expands into the bigger picture: why Latino stories still struggle to get greenlit, the pressure placed on the few that do, and what it will take—from audiences and the industry—to truly shift the narrative. Erik shares his vision as a creator, from developing TV and film projects to pushing for more nuanced, everyday Latino stories that go beyond clichés.

Plus, they get into music (yes, Bad Bunny makes the list), comedy inspirations, cultural clashes in relationships, and the realities of being Latino in rooms where you’re often “the only one.”

Funny, thoughtful, and full of gems, this episode is a reminder that representation isn’t just about being seen—it’s about being seen right.

Tap in for laughs, perspective, and a much-needed conversation about where we go next.

La Gata sits down with Dominican artist La Gabi for a conversation that's equal parts real and inspiring. la Gabi breaks down her new song Maldita Guerra — a kizomba-infused AfroBeat anthem about finally walking away from a love that was never going to change — and opens up about the personal experiences that made the song hit so close to home.

But the conversation goes way deeper than music. La Gabi talks about the years she spent studying and refining her sound, why she believes an artist's identity is everything, and what it really means to go against the grain in an industry full of trends. She shares her vision of being the Latina Ciara — a full performer who dances, commands a stage, and leaves a trademark.

We also get into Afro-Latina identity and what it means to represent in spaces that don't always see you, the importance of women supporting women in the Latin music industry, and how La Gabi keeps herself grounded through faith, volleyball, and knowing when to put the phone down.

This one's for the girls building something real.
