Downtown Boys have shared “Somos Chulas (No Somos Pendejas)”, an infectious new punk track released in celebration of their current 2017 spring tour and their new union with Sub Pop. “Somos Chulas” is sung entirely in Spanish. The chorus – “Somos chulas, no somos pendejas!” or, in English, “I’m elegant/intelligent, I’m not dumb!” – is a declaration of the ability to decolonize one’s own mind, and the importance of unlearning the ways white supremacy conditions people to think and exist. “Somos Chulas” was recorded during their recent sessions with Guy Picciotto and Greg Norman at Electrical Audio in Chicago.
