World music is a term that covers all music that is not part of mainstream pop music or classical music and has some kind of "ethnic" component.
The connotation of the term is pop music from the third world, European pop music that uses influences from the third world, and traditional music especially but not only from the third world.
The term is used primarily as a marketing/classificatory device, sometimes referring to any kind of foreign music, especially in a foreign language.

The outfits of the original RIO list were forward-thinking ensembles influenced by 20th century avant garde, jazz, folk and other music and were concerned with stretching the boundaries of the rock form in both compositional and, occasionally, improvisational settings.
New Age - The resurgence of electronic music in the 80s was partly due to its inclusion in the vastly expansionist, catch-all genre of new age (or, later, contemporary instrumental), not to mention the retroactive classification of 70s music under the same moniker.

 Regional Music of Mexico   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
Grupera music is a term that is sometimes used to include both the norteño and tejano styles as well as tropical and romantic pop styles.
Of course, niche music genres should be characterized solely in terms of the total audience size, for their compositions are equally significant for understanding their appeal.
The demographic profiles of the radio listeners to grupera, norteño and ranchera music on radio are distinctly skewed towards the less affluent and less educated, reflective of their traditional rural roots.

I'm not sure how regional this phenomenon was but it's the kind of thing my indie rocker friends would tend to refer to in jokes featuring "sizzurp" or "grills" and the like.
The author raises excellent questions in his or her response to my brief statements and, even if s/he is not addressing hip hop that often, I belief the motivations and the concerns of the author are of great importance to hip hop artists and business people.

 La Musica Latina: Musica Reggaeton Music Musica Latina Salsa Urban Regional Reggaeton Merengue
Hispanics are finding in the music of urban America and the Caribbean a reflection of their own experiences, and they are tapping into those genres to create new sounds.
But in open defiance of that longstanding belief, the "current big thing" in Latin music isn't rock but reggaeton, a genre that for years lacked not only radio support, but until a couple months ago, mainstream press and TV coverage.
The variety of musical influences on the development of reggaeton led one observer (James Farber of the NY Daily News) to call it a "cultural polyglot".
