The finale of “Vida,” the new album by the Chilean songwriter Ana Tijoux, is “Fin del Mundo” (“The End of the World”).
She sings and raps, in Spanish, about dire expectations: war, pollution, drought, a collision with a comet.
I insist that it doesn’t mean that we live in a superficial place.
It doesn’t mean that it’s not political.
And there is nothing more political than defending life and defending humanity.”In the album’s first single, “Niñx” (“Little Girlx”), Tijoux urges her daughter, and all young women, to find strength in joy: “Life scares them,” she sings.
