BOOK / REGGAETON: A LATIN REVOLUTION. Pablito Wilson

Music

What is reggaeton? What isn't it? Where does it come from? Puerto Rico or Panama? If reggaeton is the new pop, what is trap? What are the keys to its industry? How has the pandemic affected it? What's happening in the Spanish scene? This essay is a pioneering, rigorous, and enthusiastic approach to the history and sociology of the quintessential urban music genre, connecting it to other musical styles such as reggae and hip hop (naturally), pop, rock, salsa, and bolero; and to current themes that extend beyond (or may not extend beyond) reggaeton: life on the streets, artistic rivalries, the revolutionary role women play today, the industry where the music circulates, and, of course, its roots. The fundamentals of reggaeton, by one of its leading experts.
