 Mexican hip hop - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Mexican rap refers to a hip hop movement started in Mexico in the early 1990s with dance-pop act Calo.
The popularity of these US-based acts, Cypress Hill in particular, led to the emergence in the mid-1990s of crossover (rap-rock) acts such as Control Machete and Molotov.
More than 10 years after the appearance of the first rap-like act, the Mexican scene remains to the mainstream an almost undiscovered (yet emerging), large and well-distributed underground movement.

"There are some lyrics that reflect the Mexican reality," he adds, "but a lot of it is copying" the "ghetto youth" experience in the US.
