Pimienta is a Colombian-Canadian musician whose work blends traditional Afro-Colombian rhythms, electronic music, and political lyricism. Her sound often incorporates elements of bullerengue, mapalé, and cumbia, alongside synthesizers and experimental production techniques. Recurring themes in her music address issues of colonialism, racism, and gender inequality, frequently delivered with powerful vocal performances in Spanish, English, and sometimes indigenous languages. She gained significant recognition following her 2017 Polaris Music Prize nomination for her album *Motion*.
