With Guitars - Gracie Laboy is a Proud Boricua

November 15th, 2019 (New York, NY): Soon after releasing her debut EP, Valencia, singer-songwriter Gracie Laboy returns with a new, empowering and sensual bilingual single that combines a reggaetón beat with the unique sounds of Puerto Rico’s beloved native frog, the ‘coqui,’ and Gracie’s honey-dipped vocals. The pump-up lyrics and sultry vibes make you feel somewhere between a crowded nightclub and an isolated romantic beach.”Boricua” comes from the Taíno word, boriken, and is a colloquial name for a person of Puerto Rican heritage.

“I love connecting with my Puerto Rican heritage, and am proud of being Boricua, so having an original song to show just how much pride I have means the world to me. Puerto Ricans have gone through a lot lately, with the devastation of Hurricane Maria and challenges to the economy, so I hope this song can be an anthem for Boricua pride and reflect the joys of being on the island,” says Laboy.
