Guia Rivera Biography
Guía Rivera is a cross-cultural phenomenon from the Chicago music scene. She is sought-after as a song purist relying on authentic vocal talent. With a feminine touch, the songwriter draws inspiration from her ever most cherished art form: graffiti. “Graffiti” is now available as a digital single for her growing fan base. Since her crowd-pleasing performance at “A Tribute to ChiRock Nation”, she has gained the support of the hip-hop community. She is helping to shape the hip-hop landscape with “Breaker Ray” of the Universal Zulu Nation and other community leaders. Rivera represents hip-hop with a crown of dignity. She is now sporting hip-hop gear by Sweet Boutique, owned by Karma of Rock Steady Crew. This year the fashionista also worked with Mario Tricoci and Helen Yi, both respected companies in the department of style. Rivera represents the woman, a voice that needs to be heard. For the New Year, her upcoming projects will combine her penchant for fashion with her commitment to elevating the inner strength of women as she promotes her current single “Snake Charmer.” She entered the music industry when she won Heineken Estrella, the Chicago wide Spanish singing contest sponsored by Heineken and La Kalle 103.1 FM in April of 2005. She later became the first Filipina recording artist to receive national airplay on mainstream Latin radio. The photogenic diva created a powerful media buzz in her hometown. Every function she attended was cause for photo ops and television interviews. Rivera spread like wildfire on the Internet; gaining 1.3 to 2 million hits on Goggle per day due to the number of searches for her name. News of her breakthroughs fell upon the ears of Rick Gillette, the former programming director of Clear Channel radio station 103.5 KISS FM. Gillette soon invited her to the leading radio station so KISS FM could finally meet Rivera. The Luis Jiménez Show introduced Guia Rivera and her Spanish single “Camaleón” on all La Kalle stations. On “Camaleón,” she had the opportunity to work with Grammy nominated producer Soundtrakk, who also produced Lupe Fiasco’s “Superstar” and “Kick Push.” Her musical performances reflect her eclectic upbringing as a U.S. Navy brat who began her cosmopolitan lifestyle at the ripe age of 4 when she started elementary school in Athens, Greece. The Asian American Community Builder News, Asiance Magazine, MegaScene Newspaper, Asian Boston and Hataw Pinoy Chicago TV recognized Rivera’s breakthroughs in their coverage of the multitalented entertainer.
