Is Rosalía a Coloniser?

Featured Replies

She is using Latin American culture as a costume, while being a descendant of the colonisers. What do you girlies think?

Latinamerica don't give a **** about this kind of things, we appreciate the love from other cultures and nobody in the real world use the word "coloniser"

Someone said in another thread that Rosalia is less likely to be a descendant of colonizers than the people calling her a colonizer. 

No because us Latinos do not degrade ourselves by considering us 'subjects' of a European country that hasn't had any dominion over us for literally 200+ years. She is not a colonizer because we are not colonized. WARS WERE FOUGHT over this. A lot of people died. We've been independent. It's old ancient history, no one is trying to be Spain or is bothered by Spain.

 

Spanish artists and Latin American artists have been making music and collabing since recorded music started. When I was growing up the likes of Alejandro Sanz and La Oreja de Van Gogh were played alongside Latin American artists and no one gave a ****. No one gives a **** now either except for a loud minority on Twitter. Latin American artists are popular in Spain, influencing local culture and music there and are happy to do so because it's another market for them to get coin in. Rosalia isn't using anything as a costume, she is simply influenced by the music she grew up listening to (guess what, in Barcelona they play reggaeton at high school parties) and Latin American artists like Bad Bunny are INVITING HER TO COLLABORATE WITH THEM BECAUSE THEY LIKE HER. It's not rocket science. No one is being abused.

 

 

No. This narrative is so tired,  nobody in the real world cares that she's from Spain and certainly not Latinos outside of the US

Aren't Argentinians mega racist to all Latinos that aren't Argentinian and consider themselves European?

If anyone is appropriating it's ironically Anitta because there is a bigger cultural gap between Brazil and the rest of Latin America than there is between Spain and Latin America. Gringos of course do not know this.

This! :clap3::clap3:

 

Latin America loves their Spanish singers. Rocio Durcal, Camilo Sesto, Julio Iglesias, Isabel Pantoja, Mónica Naranjo, and Enrique Iglesias just to name a few.

I always find curious how some people say that actual Spanish are descendant from the colonisers, when the actual Spanish people descend from people who stay in the country and the real coloniser are who move there. I mean yes obviously the country is who was responsable but that logic is completely lack of sense
