I absolutely love that in this xenophobic, anti-latinx climate, the song that ties this record is a Spanish one. It also kind of reveals America's love of other cultures when it's for the benefit of themselves, but a pushback to welcome those cultures into their own when it benefits individuals from that culture. I'm not saying all of America is like this though, just what the President is putting forth regarding the wall and all his awful comments about "bad hombres" and all that. As someone who lives in Spain, (And being latin or not is another discussion, since latin could refer to Mediterranean countries but also hispanic or south american, which could be considered Hispanic if we want to refer to all south america except Brazil plus Spain, but that's another topic) I've observed over the last couple of years regaeton, which isn't originary from here, (but thanks to shared language) has took over the clubs and people in general, and many of us hate it, regaeton is a very generic genre, all the songs have the same f***ing rythym, the same 3 or 4 chord progression and the lyrics just use the simplest metaphors. This music takes little atention to listen to and it shows how people are getting more stupid, and the lyrics tend to be machist. It even has been proposed to limit the amount of regaeton played on clubs, radio, etc... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
