Typical Vice politically framed piece on a musical genre. Oppression, bla bla, it's just a reggaeton beat guys and most songs follow the same format. It is like a lot of trap/rap music that use the same old tired rhythms… It is tedious and lacks musicality, melody, originality, key changes to keep it interesting, and so on.
This is the type of content i want to see
I'm happy he acknowledged the contribution of Africans and Jamaicans to reggaton genre. Everything nonblack Latinos love about their culture is due to the heavy and sustained influence of African slaves. But they don't like to hear this tho…
1:03 "Reggaeton is a celebration of resistance"
Wat
bro reggaeton is almost always about sex and flaunting wealth, not more not less. This is some gringo bullshit trying to turn something political to fit their narrative.
& YOU ARE ONE BROKEN DISCO RAYSDO….A DAY LATE, & A DOLLAR SHORT
This is dope ❤
Many of them to find.
it's systemic not systematic
I like reggeaton but I don't like the vibe around it how the videos sexualise women and the men act around money and women.
Also this guy cannot dance 😂
When I lived in Nicaragua in the early 2000s all I heard was Daddy Yankee (Gasolina) blaring in the streets literally everywhere. Couldn't escape it. For that reason I hate it with every fiber of my being.
Im from no where and everywhere…………no, no sir your from New York.
Boricuas start it in PR influenced by Sounds from Panama and Jamaica
With peace and love (and no disrespect to this guy) why not interview some of the originators of the genre (who many are still alive and making music) from any of the countries mentioned, especially Puerto Rico who helped catapult the genre mainstream as opposed to a rando French dude?
Also, majority of the genre now is not political and overtly sexual. Bad Bunny has a few singles about the conditions in PR along with some other but most of the rest of it is explicit trash for the sake of being explicit.
Lastly, “afro Caribbean people who put it on the map” 100% but then shows a close up of Cuba instead of centering on Jamaica lol
this mini documentary sucks! he barely mentioned the real origin of reggaeton 'Carolina, Puerto Rico', Panama created a rhythm similar to reggaeton from the Jamaican reggae but that's IT… do your research and if you're going to make such documentary about this genre you should use a Puertorican to narrate the story.
this man is so annoying
This might be the 1st time I see Vice FuP facts this much … as a boriqua and an elder I can tell you he's wrong and he does not qualify to speak on this
Puerto Ricn from jersey much respect
This is trash music
Reggae has so many subsets – Roots, Dancehall, Lovers Rock, with so many variations within each. And so many beats – Rockers, Steppers, One Drop. Reggaeton to me is Monoton. Go back and listen to Dancehall from the late 80’s to early 90’s. Sly and Robbie, Steely and Cleevy.
You are like the New York City, New York, USA version of Tuggawar from London, England, United Kingdom
Thanks for reminding me of how much i hate reggaeton.
El Reggaeton nunca muere
Damn nobody knows Gabriel ?
This is awful 😞 not even informational! Letting me down as a pure Latino! 😢
In my opinion, ignored the roots to toot his own horn. Shame young man from one much older and wiser than you.
trash music
