Background notes
Archive material and source history
Benshorts formed in Medellín, Colombia around 2013. The group is led by Felipe Mejía and Santiago Jaramillo, who brought a rougher edge to traditional cumbia rhythms. Their track "Cumbia Sucia" became their breakout, mixing those Colombian roots with modern production touches.
Their debut album, also called "Cumbia Sucia," came out in 2015. Along with the title track, songs like "Fotos" and "Pizza y Taquitos" show their style, irreverent lyrics laid over danceable beats. The music sometimes drew criticism for its content, which kept it off some radio stations.
Benshorts followed up with a second album called "Fuego," which included work with other artists. Felipe Mejía handles vocals, giving the songs their direct, conversational tone. The group's sound stays grounded in cumbia, even as it picks up urban and hip-hop influences along the way.
