Mi Cuerpo Es Mio

Krudas Cubensi's song "Mi Cuerpo Es Mio" is a powerful declaration of bodily autonomy and empowerment, particularly for women and queer individuals. The repeated phrases "Whose bodies? Our bodies!" and "Whose rights? Our rights!" emphasize the importance of self-ownership and the right to make decisions about one's own body. This is a direct challenge to patriarchal and religious institutions that have historically sought to control women's bodies and choices. The lyrics "Saquen sus rosarios de nuestros ovarios" (Take your rosaries out of our ovaries) and "Saquen su doctrina de nuestra vagina" (Take your doctrine out of our vagina) are bold statements against religious interference in personal and reproductive rights.

The song also addresses broader themes of resistance against various forms of oppression. The lines "Ni amo, ni estado, ni partido, ni marido" (Neither master, nor state, nor party, nor husband) reject all forms of external control, whether political, social, or marital. This mantra of independence is a call to action for women to reclaim their power and assert their rights. Krudas Cubensi, known for their Afro-Latinx and queer identities, use their platform to highlight the intersectionality of their struggles, emphasizing that they are not just fighting for gender equality but also against racial and class discrimination.

The song celebrates the diversity and strength of women from different backgrounds, as seen in the lines "Afro latino, americana y caribeña" (Afro-Latin, American, and Caribbean). This celebration of cultural identity and pride is a recurring theme in Krudas Cubensi's music, which often blends elements of hip-hop, reggae, and traditional Cuban sounds. By asserting "My body is mine" and "Mi cuerpo es mío," the song becomes an anthem for self-love, resilience, and the ongoing fight for equality and justice. The message is clear: women and queer people have the right to control their own bodies and destinies, free from external oppression.
