77-year-old Cuban musician Silvio Rodríguez releases album reflecting on island's economic crisis.

77-year-old Cuban musician and revolutionary icon Silvio Rodríguez has released a new album, his first in three years. The album reflects on the island's current economic crisis, which is considered the worst in decades. Rodríguez, known for his song "Vivo en un país libre cual solamente puede ser libre" (I live in a free country, which can only be free), feels uncomfortable singing that song now due to the ongoing challenges faced by Cuba.
