- Linda Viera Caballero, better known as India and La Princesa de la Salsa ("The Princess of Salsa"), is a singer of salsa and house music. She has been nominated for both Grammy and Latin Grammy awards.
Willi Ninja, known as the godfather of 'voguing', was a fixture of ball culture at Harlem's drag balls who took inspiration from sources as far-flung as Fred Astaire and the world of haute couture to develop a unique style of dance and movement. He caught the attention of Paris is Burning director Jennie Livingston, who featured Ninja prominently in the film. The film, a critical and box office success, served as a springboard for Ninja. He parlayed his appearance into performances with a number of dance troupes and choreography gigs. His style served as an inspiration to Madonna, who immortalized it in her 1990 hit song and music video "Vogue." He also starred in the earlier music video for Malcolm McLaren's "Deep in Vogue".
Masters at Work is the house-garage production and remix team of "Little" Louie Vega and Kenny "Dope" Gonzalez. They first worked together using the name, which had been given to them by mutual friend Todd Terry (who recorded several tracks under that name during the 1980s), in 1990. Vega is also the cousin of Eric Vega, a popular event creator and promoter in New York City.
Luis Fernando Vega, better known as "Little" Louie Vega, is an American musician of Puerto Rican ancestry. He is one half of the Masters At Work musical production team. He was born to a musician family, as his father, Luis Vager, was a jazz saxophonist, and his uncle was singer Héctor Lavoe of the Fania All-Stars, and he started his DJ career spinning records at the age of 13.
By 1985, Louie who is cousin to Eric Vega, popular event creator and promoter in New York City began playing house and block parties in his local Bronx neighborhood of New York, as well as engineering and mixing. (Erasure's The Two Ring Circus features his earliest dabblings in the studio.) His first nightclub residency was at the Devil's Nest, in the Bronx, and later he moved to Roseland, Studio 54 and the Palladium in Manhattan. During the 1990s, Vega was playing at one of the most influential nightclubs for house music, The Sound Factory Bar. By the mid 1990s, the Masters At Work team had Vega spending less time behind the turntables and more time in the studio as part of the team's remixers.
The duo also produced music together under the names MAW, KenLou, Sole Fusion, Hardrive, and Nuyorican Soul.
Man, I ain't gonna lie. This song brought tears to my eyes when I heard it again for the first time in over 20 years. So many good memories. If you grew up in this era you know. The vibe, the music, the people. Chills every time I hear it!

the stars in the heavens above aligned when MAW and India collaborated on this masterpiece. I promised myself if I ever had a daughter I would call her India.
India your voice rocked my world xxx
Yo it's 2024 an I'm gonna spit some #facts these djs an producers of today are great an digital djing is a thing. But this Era of house was were the soul of house shines an this legendary trax an LA INDIA's vocal builds layers and comes to a dance floor climax that still rings tru and real today...I'm crying of this😢
1993 was the year for La India + MAW 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
The True sound of HOUSE MUSIC
THAT VOICE SAYS IT ALL. ITS VERY SPIRITUAL THING , A LOVE THING , A Soul thing ............House Music....🔊🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶
Love the mix "Deep Inside" followed by "I can't get no sleep". Both go together so nicely.

Ran here from the future to escape the madness and chill under One Roof Top, house music, all night long 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 🎆👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾🎆🔥🔥🔥👍🏾👊🏾💪🏾
I can’t get no sleep
Your touch is making me weak
I’ve got to have your love
You’re all I’m thinking of! 😴💃🏻🔥❤️
The first part of the song is just a build up to that great climax at 2:45 seconds
J Guerrero exactly
When house was house
The sista that with the "sunglasses 🕶️" on getting her Vogue on, definitely knows what she's doing👏🏼
absolute props to will ninja for coreographing this
Goosebumpsssss
As time goes by .... i miss the late 1980's and 1990's more and more. The 2000's had it's own moments, but those moments where based on the Dance movement "TRYING" ... to keep it all going.
This song made it all the way down to Buenos Aires, Argentina where I still remember when it was first blasted at "El Cielo" in the early 90's. The dance floor would just raise its vibe to a whole another level at 1:19 once La India belted out the "I Can't Get No Sleep" lyrics. The voice would just hypnotize everyone, even though most people could not understand English. Just incredible!
CHI-TOWN!
LIL VILLAGE 26KEDZIE!!
CLASSIC!
Dang....
This track still bangin hard!!!!!
Come get some of this..!!!
Hey much love and respect from Chicago!!!!!!!

India voice sends chills through my body
Wow lost for words! what an awesome song! I remember this one from back in the day. It was in my head lately when woke up with her voice in my head and now finally remember the title. Just watched it and I vaguely remember the clip but what a clip this is! 90’s b/w vogue style so simple and yet so strong she is so sensual and beautiful. Feeling happy :-) in the 90’s music made you happy. We need more 90’s not the bullshit of today!

We refer to them as Nuyoricans. They are Puerto Ricans that grew up in the NYC area - especially during the 80's and 90's. What a wonderful time to be alive...🥰

Amazing! But looks like Madonna's Vogue Videoclip.
I wonder what happened w her, where she now. Love her voice. Why she stop singing.
Just saw her in concert at Barclays Center on Saturday and she sounded amazing!
She still singing, just more salsa.
