# Overwhelming success of Cimafunk in concert in Miami to present their album El Alimento

**Date:** 10/19/2021

Cimafunk made a luxurious debut with his album "El Alimento," with which he sealed a tremendous concert in Miami.

People from all over Miami and even from outside Florida gathered last Saturday night for the celebration ignited by Erik Iglesias Rodríguez, the stage name of the Cuban artist.

From Leoni Torres to Chucho Valdés, they danced to the rhythm of his impressive fusion, which made the North Beach Bandshell vibrate.

Cimafunk proposes a phonogram that breaks stereotypes, and whoever was at the show could feel the difference of his unique style.

The show featured figures such as Chucho Valdés, George Clinton, considered the godfather of funk, and music producer CeeLo Green. The concert became a party filled with lights, revelry and good music, where many islanders met with their friends to enjoy the talent of their compatriots on stage.

Concert attendees enjoyed a total of 13 songs, among which stood out La era del sazón, Funk Aspirin and Salvaje.

Latin, Cuban and Afro-American rhythms compose the fusion with which Cimafunk broke the archetypes in Miami, and the rumba could not be missing at the afterparty of the craft brewery Veza Sur.

The interpreter and composer of "El Alimento" told Miami News Time that he hopes to show his evolution as a creator and take his career to the next level. He also referred to the quality of music producer Jack Splash, who has worked with famous artists such as Alicia Keys and Kendrick Lamar.

"It's going to be fun like in the days when all you had was a cheap bottle of rum and an acoustic guitar. It's going to be a little crazy. We're going to create a tribal state in which we are all equal and people forget what they're wearing," were the Cuban's words to the media before his presentation.

Miami is one of the locations on the tour that the urban artist has done through different cities in the United States, promoting his new album, "El Alimento."

Iglesias Rodríguez began his musical career in the province of Pinar del Río, although it was in Havana where he joined groups like Hoyo Colorao and worked as a backup singer for David Torrens and Liuba María Hevia.

In 2014 he joined the group Interactivo, directed by pianist and composer Roberto Carcassés.

His first solo album was "Terapia" where he included the single "Me voy pa' mi casa," one of his most popular songs.
