The Novísima Trova is a movement in Cuban song that emerged in the 1980s. It is considered the Cuban artistic and musical movement born as a direct manifestation of the Revolution, whose exponents are the generation that followed the Nueva Trova, also known as the Second Generation of Nueva Trova.

The Novísima Trova, a term that names the phenomenon that constituted the Contemporary Cuban Song, emerged as a result of the new sociocultural thinking that emerged in Cuba during this period.

Among its exponents, known as the second generation of singer-songwriters, we find: Carlos Varela, Gerardo Alfonso, Frank Delgado, Santiago Feliú, Donato Poveda, Gunilla, Pável Urquiza, Roberto Poveda, Julio Fowler, Amaury Gutiérrez, Gema Corredera and José Luis Barba, among many others.

The lyrics of the songs are compelling and thought-provoking, imbued with the everyday transformation of Cuban national reality. Instead of relying on poetry, the defining element of the Nueva Trova, the exponents of the Novísima delved into the reality of the moment, the contradictions of everyday life, the chronicles, and the storytelling.
