Andalusian rap. Málaga's case vol. 2

By the time I posted about Málaga's rap, I hadn't heard of one of the prime raperos in there, Elphomega. But certainly, he merits the attention both for the verbal and visual language in his work. Check it out below! He has been active since 1990 in hip-hop and rap and is getting more and more interesting for not wanting to repeat himself. “Yo! Mtv Raps” aired an interview with Elphomega just before his 2011 LP came out. And there's a documental on YouTube about Elphomega, Capaz (Hablando en Plata Squad) and Little Pepe on their ways of thinking and their lifestyles (in Spanish only). As typical to Málaga, he has been involved in many collaboration projects with other artists, such as Picos Pardos and Doc Diamond, for example. 

Examples of his work:
