Yeah but wouldnt you say music is not as good if you dont understand the lyrics? and besides music is subjective.

no, i have like 3 people i work with who speak spanish, and they have all translated the lyrics for me, and its kinda perverted.

cause in the video theres all these older male rappers, and this one like maybe 13 y/o singer rapper. and when the lyrics were translated to me, its all about how the older rappers do anything the little girls tells them to, cause shes soo gangster....

its kinda perverted....

and in their name it says the word "raggaeton" and that bothers me too....

Yeah youre right, its very perverted. Thats what its all about. Latin girls love it and I happen to be latin too so it goes a bit further than just lyrics for me.
I personally dont find nothing sexier than chicks dancing and as most of you know, no women in the world dance better than latin ones.
Reggaeton is just another form of rap, dancehall and reggae combined.

Yeah I bet youve been listening to commercial bubble gum tracks. Check out the second track on the top post you might like it.

the problem with reggaeton is that it's more like a SUB genre than a genre, quite literally every tune ive heard has the same snare placement. it's a wicked beat, but i couldn't listen to more than a few tunes with that beat before it would drive me nuts

stimulant j is on a distinguished road
reggaeton is huuge in any spanish country rite now .

its got a solid following here .. but not near as much where it should be .

PPL like it here.. but I find I can only play 4-5 reggaeton tracks a nite max.

like dabbler said .. it is kinda repetetive. .. ppl out here appreciate the beat more then the lyrics .

If you`re wanting to get into production , I`d get a hold of Chris (DJ Goldenboy) .. hes the reggaeton king in Vancouver... runs 2 latin nights. Super nice guy too .. im sure he`d be glad to help u.

haha, that is the one track I do not like. I saw Daddy Yankee live in Chile, so many hot chicks bumping to the Luny Tunes beats, hehe.

It's always on the big radio stations here in Toronto. I dunno, Daddy Yankee isn't that good. I'm still a bigger fan of Kardinal Offishal and Sean Paul... give me more of the Dancehall and Reggae. Not this other stuff... seen? :p

Yeah I know... Daddy Yankee is pretty mainstream... Tego Calderon is pretty ill, I dig his stuff... he's got better beats too.

Werd Luney Tunes are tight. Just DL'd a whole shit load of instrumentals by them.

Here's my last crack at this post (maybe).
New reggeaton mix bla bla bla I guess if you dont speak spanish you will neither understand or feel it because this is the new rap and sadly it already has fallen in the hands off P Diddy or whatever he calls himself nowadays, shit even Paris Hilton is hitting this up. So...once it goes Ingles it will lose the latin spunk that made it what it is (in warmer parts of the world).

Heres the link:

http://www.mixupload.com/index.php?a...song&s_id=7501

hope you like if you listen, hey at least check out the link to see the cover of the mix...

Yeah, Sean Paul, Daddy Yankee and this other Guy are on 103.5FM fairly often. There's lots of Jamaicans and what-not living here so it's around quite a bit.
