  • Creator to Creators S7 Ep 64 VALE! ULB
    Nov 2 2025
    BioVale! ULB The Sound of Cabana BounceMost of Vale! ULB’s lyrics flow effortlessly between Spanish and English, but even if you don’t speak the language, their energy translates loud and clear. Their latest single, “Devórame,” is a high-speed, high-energy celebration from a five-member band that has crafted an entirely new genre where the primary language is fun.“The band made a new genre called Cabana Bounce,” says lead vocalist Val. “Most of our songs are about joy, movement, and connection. ‘Devórame’ is one of them.”Born in Colombia and raised in a musically rich family, Val is the daughter of Dante Vargas, a multi Latin Grammy Award-winning musician and producer from Peru. Her dual heritage shines through her powerhouse voice strong, expressive, and versatile enough to adapt to any sound the band explores.“Devórame,” which translates to “Devour Me,” captures that playful and passionate essence. “It’s not a romantic song,” explains trumpeter Emi, “it’s about confidence, presence, and living in the moment.”Come take a bite of me now / Before it’s too late papi / Come take me down / Baby devórame ya.In this context, ya literally meaning “already” becomes a demand for right now.The Band’s Global RootsVale! ULB is a collective of musicians whose diverse cultural backgrounds shape the band’s vibrant sound:Val – Lead Vocals (Colombia/Peru)Emi – Trumpet (Argentina)Anier – Percussion (Cuba)Friki – Guitar (Cuba), son of a founder of the legendary Buena Vista Social ClubDeezle – Bass, Production, and Vocals (New Orleans, USA)The “ULB” in their name stands for United Latin Band, while Vale! is colloquial Spanish for “Let’s go!” a perfect reflection of their energy and message.“The band is all about celebration,” says Val. “We’re from Miami, and our producer is from New Orleans. So, New Orleans plus Miami equals party.”Deezle adds, “We love so many kinds of music and can play almost anything. Imagine taking a little of the Black Eyed Peas, some No Doubt, some Santana, some Stevie Wonder and then pouring gumbo juice on top.”A Band of Acclaimed TalentEach member of Vale! ULB brings a deep professional pedigree to the group:Deezle is a three-time Grammy-winning producer who’s worked with Lil Wayne, Drake, and Nicki Minaj.Emi is also a Grammy winner, with credits including The United States vs. Billie Holiday soundtrack and tours with Ricky Martin and Marc Anthony.Anier is a multi-time champion of Cuba’s Fiesta del Tambor (Festival of Drums).Carlos “Los” Battey, the band’s manager, is a Grammy-winning songwriter and music executive who has penned hits for Madonna, Justin Bieber, Jason Derulo, David Guetta, Chris Brown, and more.“Los isn’t just a managerhe’s part of the creative process,” says Emi. “He’s in the studio with us, collaborating and shaping songs. He’s the real deal.”The Creation of Vale! ULBThe band’s story began when a music executive contacted Deezle about developing a group of talented musicians. “They flew me to LA, we got a band house, and ordered all the gear,” recalls Deezle. “Within 30 minutes of setting up, we wrote our first song. Everything just clicked.”Soon after, Emi joined as music director and invited Val to front the band. When the original guitarist left, Friki joined, and Vale! ULB officially took shape.“We complement each other perfectly,” says Emi. “It’s like a puzzle where every piece just fits.”“Our band shows how people from different walks of life different backgrounds, cultures, and opinions can come together to create something powerful,” adds Deezle. “We’ve got that chemistry unlocked.”The Future of Cabana BounceVale! ULB’s music embodies warmth, rhythm, and pure joy what they call Cabana Bounce. “It’s like sunshine, a poolside party, full of color and life,” says Deezle. “It’s a mix of all our flavors from every country and city we represent.”“Devórame” is the band’s fourth single this year, and their momentum is just getting started. The team plans to release more singles, videos, and eventually an EP and full album. Manager Carlos is also developing an interactive virtual concert experience on platforms like Discord or Patreon, making it easy for fans worldwide to tune in and celebrate together.“For me,” says Val, “one of our biggest goals is to perform live and connect with people around the world.”“We’re limitless,” concludes Deezle. “We never wanted to be confined to one sound. We’re musicians first and we’re here to create without boundaries.”Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/creator-to-creators-with-meosha-bean--4460322/support.

    Bio
    K.P. (The Infamous King of Positivity) is a first-generation Honduran American of Garifuna descent and a non-binary rapper and producer whose every move is intentional. From their stage name to their sonic palette, I.K.P. creates with layered purpose.Their latest single “FTW” is a high-voltage anthem built to energize your morning, fuel your workout, or soundtrack your world domination. The track’s rattling drums and bass, combined with an eerie and dominant melody, drive a sense of urgency that perfectly matches I.K.P.’s electrifying performance.“I want them to feel unstoppable. Whatever you’re doing, you’re doing it for the win, and you’reundeniable,” they share.I.K.P.’s writing process is as fluid as it is instinctive. Sometimes they write with pen and pad, other times they record voice notes or use their phone’s notes app.“Inspiration strikes in fragments or floods. As they say, you don’t gotta get ready if you stay ready.”In a landscape where many artists cling to one sound, I.K.P. thrives in versatility. Whether it’s boom bap, drill, reggae, or Latin rhythms, they co-produce and collaborate across styles, honoring Hip-Hop’s hybrid roots and their own Afro-Caribbean heritage.“I gravitate towards a lot of things and I don’t like to be in a box. I do a lot of co-producing with a multifaceted team. I love Hip-Hop so much because you can make all these hybrid styles make sense.”Their sonic range mirrors a life of movement and resilience. Raised in Norfolk, Virginia after their family emigrated from Honduras, I.K.P. also served over five years in the Marines. Growing up near Portsmouth, they drew early inspiration from Missy Elliott’s boundary-breaking creativity.The name I.K.P. represents more than music. It embodies advocacy and empowerment. Their stage name was inspired by their mission to combat the stigma surrounding HIV-positive diagnoses and to use art as a tool for visibility and strength among marginalized communities.“I decided I wasn’t going to let things that happened to me define how I saw the world. I wanted to show people who looked like me and lived like me that they could gain a sense of power. And if they didn’t know how to do it for themselves, I could show them that it could be done.”I.K.P. also explores the intersection of rap, pop culture, and the evolving LGBTQIA+ experience, acknowledging both the progress and the challenges that remain. They reference artists like Kevin Abstract, Tyler The Creator, Lil Nas X, Young M.A, Steve Lacy, and Syd, trailblazers who continue to push the conversation forward.“It’s about self-actualization. Whether you’re Black, gay, and/or queer, you’re often kept out of certain rooms and conversations. I want to show people that you can always take control and be free.”For I.K.P., rap is a ritual, a reflection of joy, pain, and transformation.“I want to continue to speak for those who feel like they don’t have a voice or that their voice is being suppressed. Hip-Hop has always been a tool of progression and evolution, and I just want to continue that tradition,” they said.Their fanbase, affectionately known as #PozFriendlies, can expect a wave of new releases following the success of their fourth full-length project 11:11 | eleven eleven released in 2021. I.K.P. is also expanding their BLOCK SPINNINseries on TikTok and Instagram, a Stereogum-inspired chronicle exploring the history of Billboard Hot 100 hits.
