Since her introduction to the American marketplace in 2007 with her album Mi Niña Lola (My Little Girl Lola), Buika
has experienced a meteoric rise, earning lavish praise from
The New York Times, The Miami Herald, and The Wall Street

Toliver took a leap of faith and traveled to New York City, where his busking in subways and working as a freelance musician quickly gained him attention from fellow artists.
