Right from the start, the band has shown their protest nature which lead the band to reflect social issues in their lyrics. Most of their songs look at immigration, social inequality and the conflict of interests that look down on human being. In 2002 the band began to play in Barcelona: the streets, the bars, the tube and the suburban trains were their first stages. The band was first noticed internationally through their contribution SIN PAPELES on the sampler LA COLIFATA, which represents the mestizo scene of Barcelona.
They dedicated their debut TRIPPI TOWN (2003) to the Plaza del Trippi (George Orwell Square), the place where they met. The album is a product of many different musical influences: a journey through reggae, ragga, punk-latin and argentinian folklore. A subsequent tour followed through Europe (France, Belgium, Italy, Spain). Lots of shows and lots of friends from all over the world… a great influence for their second album: ALERTA BIHOTZA!!! (2005)
It is a multicultural album that takes the listener to the reggae-punk energy the band irradiates in their live shows. For the production, the band enlisted Gambeat, Radio Bemba's bassist, who is the responsible both for the harder sound and for the elaboration of their extreme energetic live show. The album also counts on some special guests appearances: Fermin Muguruza (Kortatu, Negu Gorriak), Yacine (Cheb Balowski, Nour), Dede Trake (Cannabistro), Gambeat (Radio Bemba, French Lovers, Piratas Urbanos) and Lina (Azaiza).
More than 2 years and 300 gigs... A tour through Germany, Switzerland, Austria, Denmark, Italy, Spain, France, Holland and Argentina... Now, CHE SUDAKA comes back with MIRANDO EL MUNDO AL REVÉS (2007), a new acoustic cd which is released together with a dvd including a documentary about the band, an interview and some other extra files. The album features some special friends appearances: Amparo Sánchez (Amparanoïa), Un Kuartito and Karamelo Santo (both bands from Argentina).
As when they played in the streets of Barcelona, their positive energy and the willingness to give it all to the audience are the most remarkable attributes of CHE SUDAKA.

Digo lo que veo

Vas a la calle y no podés tocar
viene la policía a tu guitarra secuestrar
Cuál es tu problema?
Digo, digo la verdad
Digo, digo lo que quiero

Digo, digo no hay consciencia

Digo, digo una masacre

Digo, digo no hay consciencia sólo saben disparar

Longside Che Sudaka
The song "Almas Rebeldes" by Che Sudaka, featuring Dr. Ring Ding, is a powerful and energizing call to action for rebellious souls to rise up and fight against the injustices of the world around them. Entering with a blend of Argentine and Colombian rhythms, the song immediately sets the stage for a lively and passionate message to follow.
The verses are delivered by Dr. Ring Ding, who speaks truth to power through his lyrics. He speaks about the reality that many people fail to see, and talks about grabbing the mic to share his perspective with the world. He sings "Digo, digo no hay conciencia solo saben disparar" ("I say, I say there is no conscience, they only know how to shoot"), highlighting the lack of empathy and understanding that can be found in many places around the world.
The chorus is an insistent call to action, encouraging all rebellious souls to shout louder, stay awake, and fight harder against the injustices of the world. The song ends with a powerful rap in a variety of languages from around the world, highlighting the global nature of the struggle against oppression.

Argentina, Venezuela, Colombia all connected, even reaching Cambodia. Passing through France, Catalonia, or Spain, Cuba, Puerto Rico, Croatia or Germany, Mexico, Euskadi, or Hungary are all great places. Look at the Brazilian, how he plays and dances. Or the Neapolitan, how he cooks in Italy. I won't forget Jamaica either.

Listen to your heart and take action. When we unite, they can't separate us. They can never try to use us as a tool. Open your mouth, shout out against corruption and injustice. We can do without discrimination, that's for sure.
