ALIANZA's first album Seres Humanos is a unique mixture of Latin Hip Hop, Caribbean rhythms and Traditional Cuban music, backed up by producer Nate's (Reactive Songs Int.) original beats. The result is an album with a huge commercial potential. Beats, melodies and compelling lyrics are Alianza's trademark. The album was launched on the U.S. Market on July 13th 2004 under the Label Pimienta Records and distributed by Universal.



The ALIANZA project was originally thought of in Cuba uniting the group members Pitit's and Alberto's Latin hip-hop with Frank as the lead singer. They proudly presents their musical origin in Cuba and mix it with fresh hip hop and rap beats. They now reside in Sweden, working with top producers & DJ's as for example Kid Suda (U.K.).



Previous to forming ALIANZA and creating the album Seres Humanos, the group members had already many years of experience in the artistic field. PITIT was the director of the Hip Hop group Grandes Ligas and he also participated in two of the most highly regarded Hip Hop projects in Cuba: Cuban Hip Hop All-Stars and Cuban Rap Ligas (Delabel Editions, France). ALBERTO was initially a professional dancer and has taken part in various dance projects, but as he entered the Hip Hop scene in Cuba he as well participated in the project Cuban Hip Hop All-Stars as a member of the Hip Hop group Bajo Mundo. FRANK started his singing career at a very early age and was later the leading vocal in the classic salsa band Sello L.A. and with the group La Farandula he received the price for best new act in Cuba 1996.



ALIANZA has been seen on the Swedish Hip-Hop scene at the Carneval 2004 at Mnschenbryggeriet, Stockholm, at Club Stockholm's Kingstown, at Fredmans Uppsala, at the Husby Festival 2005, at Noche de Reggeaton at Gaston's Stockholm in December 2005, at the Silja Line Latin Cruice in September 2006, at the New World Latin Festival in Copenhagen in October 2006, at Club Mambo in Copenhagen in January 2007, at Kulturhuset in Copenhagen March 2007 and at Tingshuse in Oslo April 2007.



The cooperation with Reactive Songs (Scandinavian Songs Music Group, Sweden) is over and the group is now independent.
