Reggeaton has been a phenomenon that has spread through out Latin America. Some containing agressive lyrics, others based on love songs, yet they all share the same rythm: fusion between reggea, hiphop, rap and obviously african rythms. it is originally from Panama and Puerto Rico, yet has been able to spread thorughout the world. A new rising group, called Calle 13, started in 2005. They have had great acceptance next to other reggeaton artists such as Daddy yankee, Wisin y Yandel and Don Omar.
Personally, I think that their lyrics are very original.
Here is a link to the lyrics to: Atrevete te te.
What is interesting to see is the English words that are found, creating what one would call Spanglish.
