Salsa and cumbia
God what a hellhole
We listen to narco corridos
Queen
Guns N' Roses
The Smiths
that's even worse. only low IQ retards glorify narcos
cumbia and salsa aren't bad, reggaeton varies from low IQ shit that only Brayans listen to, to nicely produced, melodic stuff that everyone can enjoy
Anuel AA is straight up Brayan music
I could educate all of you idiots, but I prefer to not waste my time
No, I really want to know
No
There are great indie scenes over here. But yeah most stuff is reggaeton/shitty popular music from the US.
mexico ≠ latin america
if to yankees the world is composed of a single country, to mexicans there are just two: mexico and the US
Who cares?
Anuel AA is such garbage. Who would want to hear his shitty singing voice or his shitty rapping over played out trap beats?
As far as Mexico goes, isn't banda the most popular genre besides reggaeton?
Banda its already losing its mainstream influence to pop and reggaeton
What is pop like?
And Latin America is cucked for letting shitty Puerto Rican music dominate every country
Goddamn, the charts in Colombia are garbage right now.
Mexico has a little more variety at least
Argentinian fag here. Pretty much yes, you got your exeptions but.those are, exeptions
I think throughout Latin America, people do have diverse music taste, but the mainstream right now is very reggaeton dominated
Another argie here.
Reggaeton and trap has obilerated cumbia and cuarteto, which used to be the 2 most popular genres poor people/low IQ people listened to. When I say cumbia, I don't mean original cumbia, but a bastardization of it. Cuarteto is trashy but at least was kinda fun and surprisingly fast-paced.
But yeah, now it's all puertorican slow ass reggeton and trap. I don't know how the kids don't fall asleep listening to that all day.
Argie here, it's either reggaeton, trap, shitty pop/ballad singers like Luis Miguel or Arjona (fucking hate Arjona), the poorer sectors listen to cuarteto and cumbia, and there are a lot of people who listen to national rock, which, as you would expect it's extremely derivative and unoriginal for the most part.
Of all the mainstream garbage I find cumbia to be the most tolerable. At least some of the music is kinda catchy
People nowadays only listen to cumbia and cuarteto as a nostalgia thing, but kids all listen to reggaeton and trap.
Just so we're all on the same page, Argie cocks were made for conquering stateside assholes.
Sometimes, I wish we did.
Fortunately, I was lucky enough to be around Gen X's who listened to sufficiently alternative shit. So a man of culture such as myself does not have the pains of being musically rooted anywhere too hard.
I guess I'ma hang around here. I was thinking of going over to classical but they can be uptight, Mighty helpful fellas tho.,
Mainstream radio in Mexico consists of mostly pop, reggaeton, and narco corridos. It's not that much different than here in the West Coast, but that's because mainly Mexicans exist out here.
Isn't Latin trap just reggaeton with more hi hats?
Iron Maiden
Angra
plus tonnes of gay power metal 80's stuff
Yes, pretty much. It's strongly influenced by reggaeton with slight hip hop overtones.
So 2 low IQ genres and one normal one
>There are great indie scenes over here. But yeah most stuff is reggaeton/shitty popular music from the US.
I thought mostly Puerto Ricans and Dominicans listen to that stuff.
this is such a surface look into Latin America music culture. Ya those genres are mainstream over there. But just like in America or anywhere else really, theres music scenes and different genres everyones into
It's funny because that trap shit is super played out in the US, it's probably gonna die out by next year
Not anymore, it's the most popular genre in every single Spanish speaking country
When I go on chaturbate, 90% of the Colombians are listening to reggaeton. Maybe 5% rock and 5% American pop and hip hop
>Not anymore, it's the most popular genre in every single Spanish speaking country
the Guatemalans over here still listen to that mariachi stuff which is kinda based I suppose, still waaay better than that meringue garbage
To be fair though, not all reggaeton is created equal. There is more sophisticated stuff as well as low IQ stuff that mostly Brayans listen to
It's not that Latinos listen to nothing but reggaeton, but that it is the dominant genre in all Spanish speaking countries (even Spain)
How have Latin American people not gotten sick of hearing Dembow beats for 15 years?
Yeah, and a little bit of mumble rap
>dale mami que me vas a calentar
>ponte a bailar mami que rica te ves
>mami mami mami
NO PUEDO MAS NO PUEDO MAS
NO ENTIENDO COMO LA GENTE SE LO BANCA TODO EL SANTO DIA
>It's not that Latinos listen to nothing but reggaeton, but that it is the dominant genre in all Spanish speaking countries (even Spain)
spics are a weird demographic because they love the real shit tier black metal and gore grind
>seeing anons using brayan
>feel like I'm missing out on something
>google it, shit results
Okay, what the fuck am I missing out now? Is Brayan a water-down Latino thing now?
I wish I could say reggaeton and narco corridos were going the same route, but they aren't. Reggaeton has been around since the early 2000s, using the same ass generic dem bow beat for at least 15 years now. Narco corridos employ the similar gimmick, only with lyrics and doesn't have much signs of dying just yet.
Anuel AA or Farruko with mouth full of marbles
youtube.com
I listen to this. What do you say?
Brayan is a running joke in Latin America (making fun of bydlo Colombian parents who give their kids latinized versions of English names like Brayan, Maicol, etc.), usually refers to a low IQ Latin chad type
Here in Argentina, "Brian" is the equivalent of "Tyrone" in USA, just a generic nigga name.
I'm not sure if the other anons using it here are also argies, or if it's also used in other LatAm countries.
There are plenty of metalheads but they're the counterculture
*blocks your path*
It has to be spelled "Brayan" though
Reggaeton might undergo a "disco" moment since the market is saturated now.
I'm an argie and I have impeccable taste. I'm so patrician I even think Aphex Twin is a talentless hack, and you pleb fags swear by that cunt
Mariachi will never stop being fucking based and GOAT. Mexico needs to go back to the days where it was king, along with rancheras and all.
Gracias anons.
Why narcocorridos and not regular corridos? Are all Mexicans low IQ cartel worshippers?
Furthermore, I can give you a small tour of what I know (Chile)
Here's the raunchy Godfather of modern reggaeton
This could be played on an "alternative" club, or during the Independence festivities
This first one could be considered "low economic stratus", and this second one has a "local band" feeling
youtu.be
youtube.com
Finally, this is a well known compilation that pleases most ears.
lmk wyt
youtube.com
Brazil is latinoamerica too!
I meet rock fans from Colombia all the time, but like all 50 top songs on Spotify in Colombia are Reggaeton
>talking shit about Luis Miguel and balad singers
have you ever listened to the arrangements he had on his boleros? Romance and Segundo Romance are great albums, his collaboration with Manzanero brought orquestral music to your mom (literally).
You might not like it, but he had very talented musicians, the production was also top notch during his 90's period
It's the same thing with Juan Gabriel and most Salsa music, the big band influence and the, at times, orquestral arrangements with the heavy influence of native music produced great songs that both the musically literate and poor could enjoy.
I don't know why young latinamericans, specially people on the internet, look down upon the popular musicians, they did have great producers working along them and it wasn't as cheap as Trap is nowadays. Juan Gabriel is probably the most influencial and important popular musician in Latinamerica for over 30 or 40 years hands down.
And to answer OP, young people listen to trap, indie that copies Mac Demarco, some reggae here and there, modern cumbia, rancheras and whatever is hip in the US. I don't have Bad Bunny, he is actually one of the better ones doing that stuff, but most trap singers suck (Anuel AA as the biggest example).
Anuel AA is god awful but his girlfriend is actually talented. She would be better off making high brow music with someone else
That's like asking why not hip hop instead of trap. Corridos are still bad, dumbass.
>It's the same thing with Juan Gabriel and most Salsa music
My nigga knows what he's talking about.
All things considered, and despite the tremendous amount of people who only listen to reggaeton and trap, latin america still has a lot of people who still listen to rock.
But did corridos inherently worship murderers?
Either way, Mexico needs a Bolsonaro soon or they will be fucked
Of course, I live in New York and meet young people from Latin America all the time that like rock
It's funny that reggaeton/Latin trap are "urban music" even though their peak popularity seems to be in rural areas
They listen to Drake Bells new reggaeton single
youtube.com
Was rock ever dominant in Latin America in the first place?
I'm guessing most people in Latin America were too poor to buy tapes and CDs, and just listened to the radio (and now youtube and free streaming too). So most people just get a taste of whatever is being pushed at the moment
It's funny that he made a career as musician for the Latin market
No. Corridos originated by telling stories about meaningful things, like oppression, poverty, etc. but just like all things, it became significantly diluted and morphed into the shit everyone knows now. I blame los Tucanes de Tijuana for popularizing their garbage back in the day, which is viewed with rose-tinted glass now.
It's all fun and games until they get kidnapped and beheaded
Sepultura
he is ahead of the curve and has prepared for the american demographic shift. he is a smart man. i want to hear more of his brown-faced latino music. it is pretty good desu
It's better than gangster rap at least
>Was rock ever dominant in Latin America in the first place?
It really depends on who you ask. Argentina started the wave of national rock, which of course spawned one of the most well-known treasures of the country. It was a counter-culture movement, in Mexico and Chile as well, that for almost two decades it was popular (maybe even 3 for Argentina). Mexico, like Argentina, had rock music back in the 60's but it took off much later in Mexico than Argentina. Chile was producing their own bands as well and rock was popular for some time. The other countries though seemed to have little to do in the rock realm.
indeed. i cant wait for reggaeton-latin trap to finally take over american billboard charts. i am sure most of america is sick of pop and rap by now.
I can see that happening. Despacito got people wondering that Latin music isn't just Gloria Estefan and Chacaron Macaron. However, I'm curious to see what will replace reggaeton and/or Latin trap once it becomes popular.
It missed its window. In 2017, I thought it would make a crossover due to the success of Despacito and Mi Gente, but since then, Latin music has only been popular among Latinos in the US. Nobody wants to hear Anuel AA mumble over a trap beat
reggeaton and latin trap are VERY different phenomenoms that people try to amalgamate for some reason.
Reggeaton was born as Hip-Hop + Raggamuffin made by Puerto Ricans living in the US, it was more of an urban expression thing (listen to Playero as an example, early Daddy Yankee was helluva different than 'old-school' Daddy Yankee and his more modern iteration). Then it transitioned into a more 'dance floor' style that people associate with the 'old-school' era. After that it stagnated for a long time.
Trap came as a revilatization of Reggeaton in a way, but it borrowed HEAVILY from trap in the US and thus it wasn't made for the same public as Reggaeton. Why? Well, you see, most poor people that danced to reggaeton haven't heard any trap in their life, maybe a few songs here and there in spotify, but early Latin Trap was more of a thing for kids (yes, kids, teenagers) that were more hip and understood where Trap came from, they wanted to also be cool.
I go to a lot of parties, and never a person (20+ you) would have said "hey, put some Bad Bunny" during 2015, because no one was listening to it, it was actually the teenagers that loved it and it exploded because of them during 2017. They love it because they listen to Drake, Migos or whatever. I still think of Latin Trap as more of a foreign music than something of our own.
Even then, trap is not something people dance to, it's something that they listen when they are high or to make instagram videos while acting tough.
My point is that the origin of each genre is VERY different:
Reggaeton: Music made by poor urban people for poor urban people
Trap: Music made by industries for petit burgeoise teenagers
>Mariachi will never stop being fucking based and GOAT. Mexico needs to go back to the days where it was king, along with rancheras and all.
It's the most 'european' part of that culture but those mustaches crack me up.
Only talented artists like J Balvin can make that crossover, nobody in the US cares about Anuel AA, Farruko and J Alvarez vesides basic Latina hoes
for now. jews have not shilled it hard enough yet tho. i am preparing for the brown/yellow century
>Brazil is latinoamerica too!
The German/Italian ones would disagree, whenever I run into the 'whiter' Brazilians they're always talking shit about spics lol.
Latin trap is made for the exact same market. The lyrical content is pretty similar too.
Te Bote for instance is more similar to reggaeton than American trap
We love "Los marraneitors", "Los cardenales de nuevo León" and "Grupo Marrano"
Is Latin Jazz still a thing? Or do only Cuban boomers listen to it?
The way I understand it banda has rural appeal, almost like the Mexican version of country music in the US, while reggaeton is a more urban style, so it would make sense that it’s losing popularity
Drake isn't a trap artist, he's a pop rapper
I wonder this myself
nope, we listen to obscure stuff like Pink Floyd, Radiohead, the list goes on...
Reggaeton is most popular in rural areas. You are more likely to find rock fans in Bogota or Medellin than the countryside
honestly this (not the smiths though), when they listen to rock their taste is goddamn awful
>> 86993072
Puerto Rican here. if you think that all of latin america can be reduced to three genres you're dead wrong.
LISTEN TO
>nueva trova
ex: silvio rodriguez, pablo milanés, mercedes sosa
>rock/ska/ballads
ex: los rabanes, la secta allstar, Maná
>pop/trad folk influenced
ex: old carlos vives, juan gabriel, jose luis perales
>patrician salsa
ex: hector lavoe, buena vista social club
>reggae, beachcore
ex: los fabulosos cadillacs, cultura profética
>good cumbia
ondatropica
Pink Floyd is SO obscure, I never heard of them until I came on Yea Forums
Which of these are still culturally relevant?
yikes my fellow latino
Mexican here
A lot of people like jazz here and progressive rock
im a boomer wtf can i say XD
What's so bad about it? I mean, literally none of these are popular anymore but I don't see how this is cringe.
I mean, you're not wrong but if you had being paying attention to the thread you'd see we're talking about mainstream music.
Nevermind. Forget what I said about you not being cringe. You sound like a "born in le wrong generation XD" cringey teenager.
is this stuff dying off along with the cuban boomers? Or are there younger guys keeping this genre going?
In Brazil they listen to based MC Bin Laden.
youtube.com
nah, i grew up with this music, i don't give a fuck about when it was relevant.
But the thread is clearly about contemporary music
>I don't know why young latinamericans, specially people on the internet, look down upon the popular musicians
Because no matter how many talented people work on those records, at the end of the day it's just songs about getting cuked and going to the beach. Most mainstream pop artists have talented musicians working for them, and people still find most pop music empty and meaningless.
ESTOY ANSIOSO DE VERAS
most of the people i know around here listen to music that isn't contemporary to supplement the fact that most music nowadays is from one genre. but i get wat you mean though. Actually, radios in san juan play mostly american music now. sad really :(
Hold on, what the fuck? I've never met a single person who said Juan Gabriel empty and meaningless. Did you get his post mixed up?
Death metal
I'm taling about popular music in general, not specifically Juan Grabriel.
youtube.com
she's letting it all go to waste
Fucking based reply. Bunch of zoomers overglorifying music from America or Europe while not knowing shit about the great music that was being produced here before they were even in their fathers balls
no +30 allowed in this board
cultured Hispanics listen to Salsa,Mexican music is actual ass
Oh, I guess. I mean I think I know what you meant but it seemed directed towards Juanga, Luis Miguel and others.
>implying the boomers didn't
Come on senpai. I mean I know what you're getting at but let's be real. When rock was popular in the Latin America, most were very derivative of American and European bands (at least in the beginning).
I'm 22
Rock was big in colombia in like the 80's,90's in Colombia
>t.Dad is Colombian and all he listens to is Rock,and Salsa which as based as can be compared to mexicSpics
why are you kids still pretending Yea Forums is a youth thing? Yea Forums was already a thing were you were still in pre-school.
Zoomers should be out on tik tok and other actually gen Z social media. Yea Forums is boomer territory.
>karol g and j balvin are from colombia
moot point, 3/4 nigger
based. i agree despite the fact that i was born after you graduated high school.
you and i both know you learned the word moot from The Big Bang Theory you CHI.
roots of chicha
at least i can learn things, unlike colombiniggers lol
American here but I was born in Panama and have visited family there several times. From what I've heard, yes it's pretty much just reggaeton, sometimes some more traditional music.
boomers should be banned from social media
>ban boomers FROM social media
>ban zoomers TO social media
Let's make it happen boys.
So fucking corny. I still wanna sniff her ass, though
People here only listen to the music used on parties or those which evoked nostalgia. Predominantly reggaeton, cumbia, salsa, bachata, rap and normie rock. Also noone liste to full lp
Colombia is even more into ghetto type reggaeton than Mexico
Even at the height of the CD era, hardly any albums were sold in much of Latin America because people couldn't afford them
Boomers invented social media.
But again, Yea Forums isn't zoomer territory, off to Tik Tok my child.
>No, there are great indie scenes over here
Mainly a copypaste of artist from uk and eeuu
reggaeton is shit, here we listen to El Polaco
youtube.com
>hardly any albums were sold in much of Latin America because people couldn't afford them
Kinda, but still even with the streaming services or with the full albums uploaded on youtube people would raher listen to an specefic song than the album where it came from
That's true everywhere to some extent. I guess Latin people are mostly not used to album oriented music
What're you talking about. The creators of social media are either from generation x or millenials
boomer in memespeak = anyone above the age of 25.
desu i think some see it as waste of time. Nonetheless is like any other hobby, if you like it you will invest all your time
In México Arctic Monkeys, Tool and Radiohead are the most obscure and indie bands. Boomers may listen also The Cure, The Smiths and Metallica. The rest of the population listens whatever pop ballad, reggaeton or banda garbage is trendy at the momment. Very few people here listens álbums of other genres and the shoegaze fans are so few that MBV cancelled their concert here because of the poor ticket sales.
You unnironically have to be a nigger in order to enjoy cumbia
Nope. All of them fucking listen to that garbage. Fuck you Puerto Rico for spreading that filth.
unbased and bluepilled.
Also an argennigger, and rap here got popular because a bunch of junkies decided to do freestyle competitions about 3 years ago, and now apparently everyone is a rap expert .Rap is pretty much a trend rather than a genre you try to enjoy. I have a friend who only follows trends and went from not liking rap to "love" it
Literally the most known (or the truest) cumbia artists are ghetto wannabes who think doing drugs and having weapons make them the cool boys, unless you listen to some faggot shit.
>And Latin America is cucked for letting shitty Puerto Rican music dominate every country
I seriously hope the person saying this is American, otherwise the irony would have been off the charts.
You mean one country, Mexico and El Norte
mariachi
nobody listen to mariachi beside mexicans
What's the deal with the smiths and mexico
>hating salsa
This is how you spot a brainlet
Do any Latin countries still listen to Boleros? Or is it too old
Fashioned?

muchacho Weedsons lmao
In Venezuela, It really, really depends on who you hang out with.
On one hand, normies and brayans really just listen to stuff like reggaeton, trap and whatever shit is popular in the US.
That said, an interesting scene of musicians who can't even record their own music is emerging. Venezuela is very grim atm so it's great for a huge amount of anti - establishment music being made, coupled with a bunch of people who organize really nice hardcore/emo/grind scene going on that consists of bands that don't even release music and just play their shit live, specially in Valencia and Caracas. There's a couple of festivals thst offer new stuff and ideas but it's mostly just very bad indie rock. Bedroom pop is huge, and so are a lot of indie acts and shitty YouTube-core music. The big Venezuelan musical acts i love but i might be biased because of the fact that they really resonate with me (La Vida Boheme, Amigos Invisibles, Canserbero, Rawayana). Valencia was the capital of rock even, back in the 80s, but the ones that weren't commercial didn't even get record deals so it's all lost.
As for oyher lat countries, i can only speak of
Mexico : Huge emo scene, which is why they always get a bunch of nice bands playing likr Jerome's Dream, Loma Prieta, Mineral, etc.
Argentina: they are more eclectic than other lat countries and you can tell from their rock golden era
Perú and Chile : based scene, based people and all around really nice musical culture
One last thing : latin Americans are fucking obsessed with metal and emo, it's easier to find metalheads than rap heads desu
>Perú and Chile : based scene, based people and all around really nice musical culture
Prove it.
why are you obsessed with weed simpsons though?
jajajaja BART SIMPSON
the most patrician guy I know IRL loves boleros and I actually like a few singers
Lucho Gatica is probably one of the GOATs when it comes to boleros if you want to check him out
black metal
Biased because of the Peruvians and Chileans i know and because i really like Chicha on the Peruvian side and there's really cool festivals every time i check on Chile
I left 16 years ago so I know jackshit of the music scene, what're some punk names to look up?
Yes, until you gringo faggots had to revive it and make it popular ALL OVER THE FUCKING WORLD
basado y trvepastillado
Yeah, I'm American
Yes.They listen to banda/corridos
A lot of young people in Mexico like the boomer bands you mention
And in the US, ditto the Chicanos
los panchos are GOAT-tier
Can someone explain the Weed Simpsom meme to me?
Nah, it was brewing for a few years before 2 reggaeton songs exploded in the US. The reggaeton wave in the US is already over, except among Latinos.
>banda/corridos
Absolute garbage. Naco shit.
youtube.com
You're listening to the normie shit that leaves the country. For example, Colombia has a electronic/tropical scene.
it seems like colombia is the greatest exporter of good music in latin america. Isn't Morat from there too?
>178k
Not culturally relevant.
I watch chaturbate all the time and 90% of the Latin rooms play nothing but Brayan music
Karol G is trash though
I hope Reggaeton dies out somehow
* blocks your path *
this only applies in puerto rico for the most part btw.
Talking as an argie, absolutely fucking yes, this is still quite a rockist country, even though young trap rappers are getting millions of youtube views (many more than old dinosaur rock faggots).
Here is a video of riots after Cocacola did some publicity move where they would give you one ticket for The Ramones in exchange of ten bottle caps, the tickets never came so:

Julio Jaramillo GOAT
Sorry user but I'm mostly talking about the shit i saw live down there, mostly on small gigs and shit, mostly ska. I need to ask some friends to see if they can help me compile this stuff. Some of the popular ones and not so popular are

There's more but these are like the highly popular punk bands in the country. Then there's a lotnof bands that never amounted to anything and just played live, so yeh
both of these videos fucked with my mind in different ways
feed me some good narco corridos
Mexican here.
The indie scene here truly sucks ass. The stuff you normally hear from day to day is Clairo wannabe shit and Los Blenders ripoffs. I'm the only one who makes music in my area that could be considered even remotely good
Kamasi Washington name dropped this dude Ed Motta from Brazil in a What's In My Bag video
youtube.com
it's fuckin tight
just plug your shit dude
I thought Omar Rodriguez-Lopez lived in Mexico
Isn't the normie shit reggaeton more so (like Ozuna and J Balvin)? They're singers, not rappers. Maybe they use rap delivery here and there, but the cadence is nothing like American hip hop.
Sing J Balvin's "Bonita" to yourself in English and you'll see what I mean.
This is actually some pretty good acoustic soft rock though.
youtu.be
Reggaeton never really took off here in Brazil. The culture of other Latin countries is just too weird for us most of the time.
Here's some avant garde brazilian plunderphonics.
youtu.be
>cumbia, corridos, banda, rancheras
A little mexico-centric much? Jesus fuck y'all need to grow a little. I'm ashamed for the majority of mexicans defining the entire country as being this low IQ but whatever.
I think Colombia is experimenting and actually finding their own sound, especially with the big EDM influence in that one island, (Santa Marta?).
For example Bomba Estereo is blowing up, and they're from Colombia. Theyve been featured in lots of Apple and Volkswagen commercials here in the US. Here's my favorite song by them,
I like the rap/dubstep/middle eastern shit going on here:
youtube.com
I really want a Latina gf with good music taste. I met a Colombian tourist the other day who was wearing a spiky jacket, I wanted to sniff her ass so badly
Mexican here.
Mexican americans have terrible taste in music. Fresh out of the river spics listen to fat guys playing the accordion. Fat guys playing the accordion is pretty much the national music of spics.
I come from texas, There were mexicans who listened to rock and country music. Mexicans are pretty into metal and post hardcore.
But this was in the 2000s
that's the decent stuff, but then you look up for more of it and you end up with this shit:

Look for Cruz de Marijuana and go on from there.

There's a shit ton of great latin music, you just gotta look for it. As for normal taste, no one has any. Boomers only like ballads, cumbia, salsa. Zoomers only like whatever's trending. Sure you get some exceptions with some people liking rock but it's mostly metal and bands like Metallica, AC/DC, Nirvana, etc...
I'm blessed that my parents had great taste, which really is rare here. My Colombian father taught me to love rock like Pink Floyd and the Beatles, and my mother taught me the beauty of our own music with folklore.
i need a psychedelic frog and some peyote to go with that Roots of Chicha playlist.
When that kind of stuff gets 500m views and competes with Anal AA, then we can talk.
Until then, Colombia's taste is just shitty Puerto Rican music + J Balvin and Karol G
we dont listen to them, anons are just retarted
This Venezuelan disco is pretty neat.

What about Spain? What's going on over there?
I fucking love Fania but also I listen to shit like Harry Nilsson, it really depends where you're and the people you're hanging out with, I stand reggaeton but it's not something I listen to voluntarily
Just as everybody in USA listen to hip-hop.
Latinas in the US have shitty music taste too a large chunk of the time
Lame top 40 rap, reggaeton, and maybe some pop
Just came to say that this is the Nevermind of Latin Pop and that is that
They have a decently sized Chicano following
Spain mostly listens to reggaeton also
We don't really have a choice, hip hop and electro pop are the only genres that get any mainstream traction
well the underground music scene has a lot of music groups
punk,rock,jazz and ocasional rap are pretty common
is just that they never see the light
for example,this is from my country

The bad thing is that latinos in Yea Forums will usually rec dadrock shit/anything over 25 years instead of current stuff from other genres
>La Chona not being the best song in the last 50 years
Tucanes de tijuana go hard. They were catchy af and they made banda shit actually fun to listen to because they didn't take themselves seriously.
Frankly, I'm over these high-horse, grown-ass 50 year old men talking like they're always in the right with their machismo bullshit
>tfw young Alanis Morrissette wannabe Shakira will never be your gf ;_;
*saves prog*
nothing personnel gringos
>Tucanes de tijuana go hard. They were catchy af and they made banda shit actually fun to listen
t. CHI from los angeles that's proud of his heritage and speaks with shitty Spanish and only visits Mexico infrequently
I think your Doyers hat is on a little too tight.
that died with Buena Vista Social Club
spain is all reggaeton and trap, but bad. of course they still have traditional music from their individual cultures inside the country.
>traditional music from their individual cultures inside the country
Like?
calle 13(residente) is still surprisingly based after all these years. surprised he hasn't sold out to mainstream music
this music video is kino
Westernization in Latin America has been really successful. Now, not only you guys discriminate and ridicule local native's culture and cosmovisions. Even the own latinos hate their culture and constantly praise 'the first world', mainly because of how effective media and globalization have imposed american values into the people. It's no surprise that creativity and sense of belonging is loathed among latinos, while copying your formulae is in contrast encouraged.
That doesn't mean that there have been great latino bands and artists that heavily borrow from the US/UK musical scenes. Soda Stereo, Los Prisioneros, Electrodomésticos, Akinetón Retard, Artaud, Fulano, and more recently bands like Jaime sin Tierra or Prehistöricos are all noteworthy, but you won't take one second to stop circlejerking about what's trendy on your countries.
Anyways, here are some examples of bands that successfully mix regional, local latin american music and traditional 'first world'
>Protistas (Chile)
youtube.com
>La Vela Puerca (Uruguay)
youtube.com
>Calle 13 (Puerto Rico)
youtube.com
>No Somos Marineros
>Vaya Futuro
>Carla Morrison
>Natalia Lafourcade
you have great musicians, stop complaining
flamenco in andalucía
celtic music in galicia and asturias
i don't really know about the other regions, but castille and catalonia are pretty much reggaeton and trap rn
Of course. I was just speaking of the normie ones. Although even they probably listen to more than I gave them credit for
Latina art hoes like The Cure, The Smiths, Nirvana, Arctic Monkeys, and more
>Colombia
Quemarlo Todo Por Error is a great underground math rock band
I have never met a latina who likes the cure
Lol dude, that is bullshit. 3rd world attitudes are common as fuck in Latin America. Even many US born Mexicans praise El Chapo/cartels (which is a blatantly low IQ, third world thing to do)
I think Folklore is Latin America's best music, too bad its popularity ended in the 80s.

Desencuentro is my favorite song of his, right after Fuera de la Atmosfera del Craneo.
>Westernization in Latin America has been really successful.
Yeah, where do you think trap music comes from.
Ya los escucho.
Fucking this.
???
It's pretty fucking common, mi amigo.
I've met a few already.
i feel the need to apologize on behalf of my puerto rican brethren for the havoc we have wreaked on the worldwide music scene.
>Nirvana
I'm still yet to find an art hoe that doesn't think Nirvana sucks
>La Vela Puerca
AYY LMAO
A very long time ago when i cared about music i looked into it to see if mexicans actually made anything good. The only good thing i found were some electronic songs that took the corrido and banda songs and remxied them into sort of modern electronic dance music. also mexican black metal which uses aztec pagan imagery instead of nordic

I guess it just goes to show if you dig hard enough you can find diamonds in a sea of shit
Nos diste Calle 13, todo esta perdonado. Tu No Metes Cabra is a catchy song, too.
Search for Canal Kondzilla on YT and you'll be sickened by what Brazilian macacos listen to
Anuel AA is so corny, his fashion style is like black American guys from 2005 and he's 3 years in the past as far as trap music goes (still doing the BRRRR thing that nobody in the US does anymore)
Oh, I forgot Goli.
Chilean art hoes also love Argentinian indie. Él Mató a un Policía Motorizado, Las Ligas Menores and the like. I love that stuff, I wish Yea Forums discussed it :(
Who has contributed most to music in Latin America?
I guess i would say Mexico = Brazil > Argentina > Panama > Peru > Chile > Ecuador > Venezuela
"contributing" is a weird word, but imo Argentina > Chile > Brazil > Mexico > Peru > the rest
Latinas that like rock have the best smelling assholes, I'm not even kidding
>no carribean
wow
Unfortunately, Puerto Rico. Colombia's whole top 50 is filled with Puerto Rican artists.
Please, enlighten us then
ayyy amigos
It's the language barrier, user. There must be hidden gems from all around the world but good luck finding them.
Contribute? What you said, but in terms of quality I'd say
Brazil>Argentina>Chile>Ecuador>Mexico>Uruguay>Venezuela>Colombia
jesus fuck do you always look at the number of views for every video to see how "relevant" they are? lol
To be fair, it's 9 million views on a lesser known song. Also, reggaeton is just gonna dominate everywhere because it's great dance and fuck music. Also, every country besides Costa Rica is probably on the decline in terms of education, so it's obvious that the brainlets that grow up will listen to the most normie bullshit out there.
>Argentina
>Chile
Most of those artists are unknown in Mexico, only people know Cerati and Laferte
I don't know about "decline", but more like "not improving fast enough"
fuck Spain and Argentina. They were only good for rock in the 80s/90s.
and this is another one from the same group
Latin trap is not great dance or fuck music though. It's just low IQ Brayan shit
>Quality
Pretty subjective m8
>tfw she's on the reggaeton bandwagon
>tfw she's white/blonde now
at least she's a great philanthropist, i guess.
>Spain
Los Punsetes, Odio París, Triángulo de Amor Bizarro and Los Planetas fucking rock. Also Nudozurdo back in the 2000s
As overrated as they are, the mainstream genres do have some good songs. I know that salsa has some great artists, mainly in Cuba and Colombia. I don't like Reggaeton but I think Ñejo's songs are catchy.

Where tf do you think we are? And no, there's a clear difference between ITAOTS and this shit youtu.be
Morrissey loves Mexico and Mexico loves Morrissey.
Something about being a broken-hearted poet or some bullshit that rubs Mexican women the right way. His masculinity isn't defined by the machismo culture that is forced into Mexican men. He's a true "man going his own way".
Also Mikel Erentxun's "Esta Luz Nunca Se Apagará" popularized the spanish version of "There is a light that never goes out". Then it kind of became a meme that if you were an indie mexican kid, you'd hover towards The Smiths.
Yall stupid it goes Colombia>Spain>Argentina>Peru>Carribean Countries>Brazil>Shit>Mexico
>Congolombia
Kek
Anyway, Mexico has produced the most Successful bands and artists, most Sudacas travel to Mexico to start a career
Jesus Christ, he's so godamn hot. I want to be his bitch more than anything.
He looks weird
mexico????? lmao
I'm talking about the decline of most countries, since WW2, in terms of leaving behind the country-wide collective effort of fixing actual issues in the world.
More and more countries are embracing more fascist or populist governments, because generations nowadays haven't experienced a worldwide trauma. See the fascist side-effects like Trump, Bolsonaro, Maduro, Erdogan, Duterte, etc.
The only real cause of this is the decline in socialist programs like education, healthcare, etc. Those systems are being eroded because someone in power wants to take those things away.
I think Bolsonaro will lead to improved education
fuck you
I really want to sniff a cute Colombian girl's soles, anyone else feel the same way?
I see these girl's soles on Chaturbate and they're fucking perfect! Nice shape, smooth, beige, soft buty meaty, amazing toes, and sexy beige color
xd
Better than some commie shitbag
Brazil>Argentina>Mexico=Colombia=Cuba & the tropics>Peru>the rest
To my knowledge, Chile has done nothing except godawful passé 90s pastiche rock, but if some chilean user has proof otherwise, go ahead
>Avant-Prog
Fulano, Akinetón Retard, Mediabanda, Un Festín Sagital
>Psychedelic Rock (with shoegaze or krautrock elements)
Los Ganjas, The Holydrug Couple, Follakzoid, Adelaida
>Shoegaze
Trementina, Coloressantos, Velódromo, Mi Andrómeda
>Midwest Emo/Screamo
Leidan, Invierno, Asamblea Internacional del Fuego, Contra Todos Mis Miedos, Esconder Micara, Gloria en Sepia, Subir en Busca del Aire
>Noise Rock
Taller Dejao, Congelador
>Miscellanous
Electrodomésticos, Fiskales Ad-Hok, Prehistöricos
Tango in the Southern Cone
So, there are some patricians in that region
MatPat’s wife Stephanie is currently holidaying in Puerto Rico.
Name one single good latin indie band that isnt a direct copy from something already done in the US or Europe
rec me latin funk, jazz, bossa nova, etc
>America continues to take over the world
>is butthurt
hmm
What am I missing out on if the only latin artist I've listened to are from Argentina, Mexico and Brazil?
Are you kidding? He has total bedroom eyes, probably has a big dick, and a high T attitude. Could anything be better?
A mi me gusta Chayanne

Música norteña y Tex Mex
brazil wins for having invented bossa nova
Gracias por la ayuda, user. ¿Quieres que te chupe?
>Just came to say that this is the Nevermind of Latin Pop and that is that
What the actual fuck. I don't know whether to be offended or take this as compliment. This album is a fucking classic and Nevermind is overrated shit.
