Pedro Leonel Polledo Hernández, although a trumpeter and not a singer, is nevertheless one of the voices most frequently heard in the concerts of Charanga Forever, and before that, Charanga Habanera. His rapping and playful bantering with the audience became a popular part of such songs as "Hagamos un Chen".

He played with La Habanera from 1991 to 1998.

He's now one of the three remaining founders of Charanga Forever. [Majela Serrano]
