	Cumbia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Cumbia is the net intersection of three cultures that settled in Colombia at different times: indigenous peoples, Spanish/Moorish and African slaves.
		Cumbia is very popular in all of South America (except Brazil), as well as Central America and Mexico (see Mexican cumbia).
		In Argentina, for example, this social divide is exemplified by the cumbia villera phenomenon, that intends to represent and resonate with the poor and marginalized dwellers of villas miseria (shanty towns and slums), with lyrics glorifying theft and drug abuse.

		Cumbia is very popular in all of South America, and there are lots of different flavors of it.
		In some ways comparable to US gangsta rap or Brazilian funk from the favelas (in attitude rather than musical style), these bands, with their waist length hair, hooded tops and rap poses, do not shy away from controversy.
		It is called "The 90's Cumbia" or "90's Glamorous cumbia", and emerged in Buenos Aires in the late 90's and the early 2000's.

		Cumbia is very popular in all of South America (except Brazil), and there are lots of different flavors of it.

		Glamorous cumbia (also known as 90s Cumbia or 90s Glamorous Cumbia) is a genre of cumbia that is not especially identified with the lower social classes.

	The Austin Chronicle Music: Cumbia Sobre El Rio
		A folkloric music born in Colombia's Caribbean coastal region, cumbia sabanera and its cousin cumbia vallenata were forged from a fusion of European accordion, native Indian guacharaca (a bamboo scraper), and African rhythms played on the caja, a drum slightly larger than a bongo.
		It was in Independencia that cumbia Colombiana was born in the early Sixties, transforming Monterrey into a unique haven in Mexico for a music melded by African slaves and rural Colombians.
		Still, the characteristics of cumbia lyrics are changing in the hands of Mexican musicians, becoming more reflective of their struggles with poverty and the loneliness of life in the big city.

	Guardian Unlimited \| Arts Friday Review \| Argentina's street music
		The new cumbia is for the 21st-century equivalents of Peron's "shirtless ones", but it is unlikely the old iron-handed general would have liked it - he banned the songs of sardonic tango writer Enrique Santos Discepolo.
		One leading new cumbia artist, Gonzalo Ferrer of Guachin, classically trained and a devout Christian, claims his songs reflect his experience "working with disabled kids, drug rehab groups, alcoholics and living in the villas and accompanying the cardboard collectors to hear their stories.
		While cumbia is just a social thing for the millions who queue to enter the clubs, the musicians are thought by most Argentines to be managed by a mafia-style caucus who cream off most of the takings.

	Música Reggaetón Reggaeton Music: Tego Calderon was Reggaeton when Reggaeton wasn't cool
		Yet even Calderón tips his hat to Panamanian El General, who broke onto the scene in the late '80s with a fusion of cumbia and reggae that is almost identical to reggaetón.
		The music popular in nightclubs and festivals today, which began being referred to as reggaetón a few years ago, is lighter on the cumbia, heavier on the reggae and adds hip-hop, rap and merengue.
		Latino hip-hop artists tend to rap and sing mostly in English and emphasize hip-hop and R&B rhythms, while reggaetón artists sing in Spanish, relying heavily on reggae and cumbia rhythms and injecting Dominican and Puerto Rican flavors.

		Buenos Dias - for an album that opens with a triple threat of powerful rap rock, this song abruptly shows that El Gran Silencio are not a one note band.
		The horns in this song are all over the place, the Ska rhythym is tight, and textbook, the Cumbia flow oozes through the whole thing and again, that verbal energy that defines El Gran Silencio at their best oozes through the song.

		Cumbia is an indigenous rhythm of Colombia filtered again through an unavoidable African influence.
		The moderate tempo of cumbia can be used also in place of a hip-hop beat for adopting Rap into Latin music.
		The influence of Rap and Hip Hop is also unavoidable in Latin-American culture from the Nuyoricans in New York and Chicanos in California to the Argentinos in South America.

	Caribbean and South American Music
		From its roots in reggae toasting, through its mid-eighties conjunction with funk and soul, to its contemporary dalliances with pop sampling and dumbed-down rhythmic brutality, the rap vocal style has prospered or stagnated artistically to the extent that it has been able to exploit such stylistic reciprocity.
		On their debut recording, the ten-piece Los Angeles based Ozomatli flawlessly integrates the raps of Chali 2na into a lively mix of musical influences, Mexican cumbia, African highlife, flamenco, funk, hip-hop, rumba, tablas, anything within reach and hearing in the broader cultural maelstrom.
		"Cumbia de los Muertos" has the slight percussive hesitation of classic Colombian cumbia, rich harmony vocals accentuated by saxophones, a traditional performance which suddenly accelerates into hyperspace with Cut Chemist's turntable scratch, loopy dub reverb, and a brief, spirited rap by Chali 2na, all carefully coordinated.

		Rapping in a steady-smooth lower register, her voice at times quavering like a flamenco singer's, Rodrguez easily outdistances most of her Latina rapper counterparts.
		And like many of her Cuban and Spanish contemporaries, as well as our own country's purist hip- hop crews, Rodrguez's lyrics are more like socially conscious poetry than boasts.

		Only by mixing such diverse genres as rock, rap and cumbia, can artists like Celia Cruz, Café Tacuba, Moenia, Gustavo Santoalla and Fiebre be brought together under one roof.
		Control Machete's "Si Senor" is a smart rap, while Nacha Pop and Fiebre both cover "Lucha de gigantes", a great acoustic rock ballad that's almost impossible to find in English these days.
		Control Machete returns with another stinging rap: "De Amores Perros" featuring haunting vocals by Elizabeth Guerra that are reminiscent of "Prince Igor" by Sissel and Warren G. Moenia's carnal "Lado Animal" possesses all of the sultriness of Depeche Mode at their best.

		The first promotional cut is “Nadie” (Nobody), a hot dance ‘cumbia’ that illustrates ATM’s sound and style by clearly marking its territory with the accordion functioning as the basic premise and common thread of “A Toda Máquina”.
		Among some of the cuts that best characterize ATM, aside from the first promotional cut are “Gangster Cumbia”, a mid-tempo ‘cumbia’ infused with a party flavor energy that undoubtedly defines the group as a potential new Latin music sensation.

	Press Release: Flakiss Becomes the First West Coast Latina Hip Hop Act With Her Debut Album “Liberate”
		Originally from Sacramento, California, Flakiss is Univision Records’ most recent release in the emerging Urban Regional music genre, making her the first female voice in the movement that fuses the rhythms of traditional Regional Mexican music with the decadent sound of the urban rap of a Hip Hop-infused generation.
		In my house I used to see this as normal, the constant abuse of my dad towards my mother and I just accepted it as a fact, it was a vicious cycle that in time turned into the norm,” concludes Flakiss.
		With rhythms that fluctuate between Cumbia Rap in “Ya No Se Que Hacer” (I Don’t Know What To Do) and the melancholic lament of the Norteño Ballad in “Amor En Silencio” (Silent Love), Flakiss presents a cornucopia of versatility in the lyrics of her album.
