Why is she special?
This Colombian-American singer-songwriter has the gift of song and fight. Blending all the styles that she grew up with, from cumbia and rock to flamenco and R&B, she's part of a new generation of Latina musicians pushing the genre forward.
Why we know her?
With a Latin Grammy for Best Songwriting in hand, Soraya's career, spanning four albums, is bathing in recognition. But she's also a hero of sorts, spearheading a campaign to raise awareness of breast cancer in Latin women, a disease she survived.
