Taichu’s show at the Art Media Complex lacked nothing. There were six dancers accompanying them, laser lights, champagne shower, papers, cake, pose, parade and a live DJ: Anita B Queen, the same one who did the Bizarrap preview at the Palermo Hippodrome,
Friends and famous guests were present in the VIP area, such as Lali, who uploaded stories on Instagram showing part of the show. Both she and Taichu herself paid tribute to Moria Casán: Lali with the video for her song qués Son (along with the diva) and Taichu with her song Babyspice.
There were several live look changes that highlighted iconic elements that define a diva, such as a faux fur boa, stiletto platforms, latex, transparency and the inevitable giant flashing glasses, now on mobile phones.

There were also guests from the Rip Gang, the artist group to which Tais belongs and of which Dillom is the greatest representative, such as Saramalacara, Muerejoven and Broke Carrey, with whom he has various collaborations.
A large background screen illuminated the length and width of the stage with words like “Rawr!” (the name of their debut album), La One, the original, whore, extra bro and tough bitch. It was all part of their “hotcore” concept, the visual and aural aesthetic that accompanies the album.

Tais “Taichu” López Miranda is 22 years old and, despite his young age, has already taken to several stages. She has been singing flamenco with her mother since she was 17. She gained popularity online with her covers and eventually released her first single “Luxury” in 2019.

In the last two years, its growth and reach – as measured by social platform metrics – have increased thanks to participation in major festivals such as Boombastic de Madrid 2023, Cosquín Rock 2023, Lollapalooza 2022 and the recent Equal Festival with a line-up of 100 % accelerated Argentine female artists.
This show was part of the first leg of a world tour that began three months ago in Madrid, continued in Barcelona, Montevideo and Córdoba and will continue in Rosario to end in Mexico on November 25 of this year.

Taichu sang and danced 37 songs during his show.
A poppy rave
With a repertoire of 37 songs compiled into a nearly two-hour show, Taichu left behind sweat, front and glamour. He decided to show the whole essence of an album that was well received by the audience, which was predominantly represented by young women under 25.
All songs from her album were played, but there was also room for older songs like Hic C and she even returned to her covers roots by performing Believe Cher with her own imprint and arrangements with a more electronic edge.
The setlist included Tolkin Yit, Mortal Kompa, Top and Noche de sateo. Baladarks, d Cero and the classic among the classics, also Gabbana. Everything took place amidst a festive atmosphere that seemed unbridled.

The wild dancers posed, posed and drank, kissed, kissed and rubbed each other with Taichu like it was a club rave but with an audience.
Association of Divas
“When I smoke I feel like a geisha,” Tais repeats in action as he sings Babyspice with bedsprings playing in the background. The sentence is the same that Moria Casán said on the cover of the cannabis culture magazine THC. Other typical words from “La One” appear on the screen: marginal, outsider, spiritual and serial connoisseur. All Moria concepts that Taichu picked up.

Lali publicly praised her more than once, and Taichu said that in an exchange of private messages between them, she said that “we all have pop.” A collaboration between the two would be the icing on the cake to end the party.
