MELTING POT: SPAIN

The creative and commercial construction of a white Latino image by European artists who produce reggaetón is more than simply whitewashing. The shared language might impart a sense of authority and authenticity to these Spaniards. But we must remember that this language is shared precisely because of Spanish colonization.

Bailando allowed Enrique Iglesias to reinvent himself as a hip Latin urban singer by relying on Afro-Latino cultural markers – in this case, reggaetón – while simultaneously embodying Latino whiteness”.

So, we, at Latino Resiste, truly believe that we can embrace Spanish Culture as well without having to worry about misappropriation.

We bring a MELTING POT with a mix of some of the Most well known and Underground stuff from Spain.

If you know mestizo Music, then you know who Joxe Ripiau are, and their impact in the Euskarria scene, as well as Paul de Swardt’s input in making ragga-fusion accessible as part of Macaco.

But no one has brought more highlight to Spain’s music than Rosalia.. so we grab 2 tracks and gave them our treatment.

Of course there are many more things, like Major Lazer in a flamenco, or Ragga Twins with some tios!!

Anyways, GRAB THIS ONE HERE!!
