You'll explore the origins of reggaeton in Puerto Rico, the golden age of salsa at Fania Records, crossover legends like Shakira and Ricky Martin, the rise of corridos tumbados, Brazilian bossa nova and samba, bachata from the Dominican Republic, and how Latin music became the fastest-growing genre in the United States.
Reggaeton is a music genre that originated in Puerto Rico during the 1990s, blending Latin Caribbean rhythms with hip-hop and reggae influences. It is defined by its signature dembow beat and has become one of the most popular genres worldwide.
While subjective, Bad Bunny has become the most commercially dominant Latin artist of the streaming era, ranking as Spotify's most-streamed artist globally for three consecutive years (2020-2022). Shakira and Daddy Yankee are also among the most recognized Latin artists of all time.
Salsa music developed in New York City during the 1960s and 1970s, created largely by Puerto Rican and Cuban immigrants who blended Cuban son, mambo, and other Caribbean rhythms. Fania Records, founded in 1964, played a central role in popularizing the genre.
