Most of the cases sampling Rap anthems and adding their own latin flavour, the result might be as wicked as this one:

Being one of the most underground genres in South America, Salsa Choke style of dancing was
seen by millions when Colombia’s soccer team celebrated every time they scored.
Triggering right there an exhaustive expansion for that unique sound.
In order to give the compilation its real credibility, we went straight to the source.
Cali, Colombia.
And asked the most prominent promoters of the genre to curate and select the tracklist.
Dj Marlong (Son & Sabor) who grabbed some of the most dynamics acts from the genre, however it is Marlong’s knowledge and connections that made possible to have access to the core sound.
While Caballo & Jebuke (tropicalia) covered the “less ghetto” approach.
The result is a 10 track album with some of the most relevant acts of the genre, who rarely get covered on the
traditional media, while still combining hundreds of thousands of views in Youtube or thousands of plays in SC.
Not even mentioning packing all the streets of Cali and its surroundings.
