De Kiruza is an influential Chilean band, known for its significant contributions to the Latin music scene with a unique blend of funk, hip hop, and Afro-Latin rhythms. The group began its journey in the burgeoning music scene of Santiago during the 1980s, at a time when Chile was under the rule of a military dictatorship. The band's sound and message provided a fresh, defiant cultural soundtrack that resonated with the youth and those yearning for social change.

Their music, characterized by sharp social commentary and a fusion of styles, has consistently appealed to a broad audience seeking both groove and substance. De Kiruza's most recent releases, such as "Dónde Estabas" and "Tus Ojitos", showcase their ability to evolve and remain relevant, melding classic tones with contemporary influences. With tracks like "Nuestro Idioma" and "Musica Pa'l Mundo", they continue to celebrate Latin American culture and identity, while "Bakan" and their eponymous release "De Kiruza" serve to fortify their legacy as a band that has not only witnessed but actively shaped the course of Chilean and Latin American music over the decades.
