You’re facts and more importantly your usage of them has only exposed the reasons behind this thread. It’s why OP has me on ignore. I’m sure I pulled his Hoe card earlier in another thread and given his background yeh :pachaha: . I ask questions ppl don’t/can’t answer.

You still haven’t answered my initial question, but I already know the answer.

You can’t go to a bad bunny concert like you can’t go to a Sech concert. Lol there’s nothing there for you. You can’t enjoy it because you can’t understand it. You can only talk about it in this context ie shoehorning your identity crisis into it.

That comment is no secret about where I stay and my family :mjlol: . Once again I pulled his hoe card and the personal insults fly. I’m black American. None of that internet shyt ADOS/FBA. Straight up black American. Ppl here from the beginning

reggaeton has black american musical influences all over it. Reggaeton is actually:

Spanish Dancehall (Jamaican Dancehall filtered through Spanish speaking black like El General ) X American HipHip/Urban music. I've explained this before:





Reggae in Spanish



.
.
.
.



vs

reggaeton




Reggaeton - Wikipedia



straight from the mouth of the Ricans that were in Puerto Rico






the difference is modern reggaeton cut down on the dewbow beat and replaced it with trap and house music influences

Reggaeton was dead until they rebooted off of the trap and house influences. The OG reggaeton is dead...they are now going more trappish and that makes their sound more modern and other's are more tropical house (dancehall + deep house).Fat Joe touched on this in his latest Drink Champs when he explained why he hated the OG reggaeton sound from the early to mid 2000's but why he likes what they're doing now with the sound.











Got the receipts via quotes/audio/video straight from the Latinos themselves!:ohlawd:

early reggaeton docu where the different artists mention they were doing hiphop in english/spanish before hearing spanish reggae so they carried those influences over to reggaeton after being impacted by Vico C





Vico C on Reggaeton



the overt HipHop influence is what distinguished reggaeton from the "reggae in spanish" of El General/panama

U 100% right I remember in the 90s my Spanish nikkas would be listening to cats like Big Boy which was basically Spanish rap but he was one of the founding fathers or Reggaeton.

Hispanics or Latino?
Latino, but lost nikkas wanna box it in Hispanic since they think it’s sexier because of its proximity to Whiteness, while still bein able to tap they feet in non-Whiteness when they get called out on it

Joe Budden is a prime example of this hypocrisy.
Every other episode he likes to paint an anti-Black narrative on Ish for messing with white girls, while fetishizing “Spanish” girls in the same episodes.

Enslaved Africans are the foundation of Black Diasporic culture as a whole.

African-American, Afro-Caribbean and Afro-Latino

:sas1: Adds an extra layer of sting to it, doesn’t it?

This is an ugly display of racial insecurities. Your personal trauma with PR’s shouldn’t be laid at the feet of Panamanians and reggaeton lol
@IllmaticDelta is in here dropping actual facts backed by receipts and you have yet to make an actual point

It’s either true or not true.All that other shyt is just babble. Nikka In here providing top flight security for a group he doesn’t even belong to :dead:

Oh and anybody can be a “black American” that’s not the flex u think it is

It’s not a flex but he wanted to dismiss my opinion and probably call me a tether but he can’t :umad:. I’ve made plenty of points. Acknowledging them would reveal an ugly truth of racial insecurities that y’all not fitting to do lol.

More importantly he didn’t arrive to this point due to genuine scholarship. He arrived to it like the OP and so many of you online nikkas do and that’s personal hurt feelings.

There’s a difference. Y’all have turned into Karen’s attempting to insert yourselves into someone else’s history. And the worst part about it is you don’t even attempt to enjoy it in its current form. ya just want to walk into a colmado with a picture of el general and tell random ppl this is the original . :bryan:Again who hurt you nikkas? Y’all not even listening to current black Latinos making the music. Again y’all don’t care for it. Because it’s not for you and that’s okay. Part of being a man is understanding not everything is for or about you. I really can’t tell the difference between white women and y’all online. Same behavior:huhldup:

I ain’t never heard a Nigerian, Congolese tell me as a black American about my culture. They just examine the shyt as “ours” because they have “theirs” even when there’s obvious cross pollination. They have enough respect, and culture security to not be an antagonistic weirdo.
