It has been said that all good things eventually come full circle. This is the case for singer, songwriter, and actress Adassa. This Miami-born Afro-Latin Colombian singer refers to Texas as the place where it all started. From humble beginnings in Houston, Texas, to international venues around the world, Adassa released a couple of cumbias over the past year, “Ni Un Beso” and “Flor de Lis,” produced by her award-winning husband, Gabriel Candiani. “Ni Un Beso” reached the top 5 of the Tejano Gold Countdown.
