San Francisco (California), USA -
The
Rough Guide to Urban Latino focuses on rap from Colombia, rock nacional from Argentina, Cuban ska, Mexican electronica,
reggaeton [other times spelled reguetón] and hip-hop from all over, The Rough Guide To Urban Latino contains
some of the most stirring artists in the genre.
From Bogotá to Rio, urban life across Latin America is a struggle for most but the elite few. Wrapped up in killer dancefloor fillers, the music resonates and pulses with the trials and tribulations of everyday life and can express injustice just as sweetly as it does elation. Jam-packed with some of the hottest sounds from the urban Latino world, this album features lyrics born on the street dripping with tales of passion, anger, love and politics.
