Celia Cruz (Úrsula Hilaria Celia Caridad Cruz Alfonso) Oct. 21, 1924-July 16, 2003 was a Cuban salsa singer who spent most of her career living in New Jersey, and working in the United States and several Latin American countries. Cruz was one of the most successful Cuban performers of the 20th century, with twenty-three gold albums to her name and has earned the moniker of the “Queen of Salsa”. Leila Cobo of Billboard Magazine once said “Cruz is indisputably the best-known and most influential female figure in the history of Afro-Cuban music.”

    Celia was one of a kind, she definitely was I am not a fan of salsa really, but I came to show her my respect. Hope someday we'll see Cuba free!
