EL REGUET\u00d3N<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

El reguet\u00f3n es un nuevo estilo de m\u00fasica latina bailable que naci\u00f3 en Puerto Rico hace aproximadamente 10 a\u00f1os. Es una mezcla de rap, hip hop y reggae, y tiene influencia de ritmos t\u00edpicamente puertorrique\u00f1os como la bomba y la plena. Es un ritmo muy pegajoso y popular con la juventud hispana tambi\u00e9n en Estados Unidos. <\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Las letras traen cr\u00edticas sociales, exponen la realidad de las calles y tambi\u00e9n hablan del amor y la pasi\u00f3n. El reguet\u00f3n tambi\u00e9n promueve un estilo de vestimenta, con mahones de piernas anchas, camisetas tropicales en tama\u00f1os grandes; en algunos tambi\u00e9n llevan tatuajes.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

En la actualidad, Tego Calder\u00f3n, Daddy Yankee, Ivy Queen, Nikky Jam, Wisin y Yandel son algunos de los m\u00e1s importantes exponentes del reguet\u00f3n en Latinoam\u00e9rica.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n
