Latino | Listening In

Welcome back to Parsons Playlists! Today’s playlist is curated by Music Library student assistant Luis (class of 2025) and features music by R&B/Latin artists Kali Uchis and Omar Apollo.

Kali Uchis and Omar Apollo

This year I have really gotten into listening to both of these artists. Omar Apollo is a Mexican-American singer-songwriter known for his genre-blending sound, combining elements of R&B, funk, soul, and Latin influences with heartfelt, bilingual lyrics. Kali Uchis is a Colombian-American artist celebrated for her sultry, versatile voice, blending R&B, soul, reggaeton, and pop in her music, often with themes of love, self-empowerment, and cultural identity. I wanted to share some of my favorite songs from both artists, as well as some of the collaborations they have done in the past.
