Reggaeton scene would also look better if the ppl doing these videos wouldn't be wearing all those jerseys and shiet...ive seen a cpl videos that they're doing their original thing other than trying "all hard" w/ their sean john wear, ect...leave that w/ the hip hop crew...seems like all the new reggaeton videos r consisting of jerseys and XXXXXXXXLL white Hanes-3 for $10 shirts...

2 thumbs up on the hot chicks that like reggaeton, i know a few...

2 thumbs down @ XXXXXL Hanes....aka fruckinn gay!

make no mistake people

FYI

Reggaeton comes from PR. there are other forms of Spanish reggae and ska....but Reggaeton per say, that originated in PR. and it has a history just like hip hop and stuff. Reggae from Argentina, Panama, etc is just Reggae in Spanish, thats a different thing...not the stuff Ivy Queen or Don Dinero play.

I got news for you Norah. What puertoricans call reggaeton, is nothing but Dance Hall Reggae, plain and simple. The first one that started singing it in Spanish was a panamanian by the name of Renato with a rendition of a song called "What police can do" (El Deni), back in '87. Ever since, that music has dominated panamanian airwaves and clubs. puertoricans also started singin it, only they started calling it reggaeton a few years ago, only they use a style called "dembo", which is very old. In Panama they use both "dembo" and "bultron" styles, only puertirocan reggae, a.k.a. reggaeton has become very much popular, specially in the US due to the originality of their compositions, wether panamanian has fallen into a deep hole, due to the lack of original music, nowadays almost all of it are just spanish versions of Jamaican hits, so I'll give credit top the puertoricans, but make no mistake, it is the same thing.

Ok, so this thread is not about electronic music and I'm definitely a critic of hip-hop music. But, I just got back from my trip to San Jose, Costa Rica and found my ear caught by a fusion sound I hadn't heard here in the states (with the exception of Ivy Queen). Does anyone know where I can find out about this fusion of hip-hop, latin, and reggae music I heard while in San Jose? I'm interested in finding a website(s), etc. that has a current list popular songs and artists, similar to Ivy Queen.

Can you read Spanish? I'll give a couple of panamanian sites of the ORIGINAL Reggae en Español, el reggae de Panamá.

I can read Spanish better then I can speak it.....I can find my way through a website if you have a few.

OK, here are a few sites for you:

TV shows:

www.reggaemania.tv

www.sincensura.com

Famous producers:

www.elchombo.com

www.djpablito.com

internet radio stations:

www.superqpanama

news and music downloads:

www.reggaecrewpanama.com

www.srlteam.net

pretty soon:

www.reggaepanama.tk

Hope they can be useful 8)

This music was created to torture me. I do not like either styles of music and for somebody to combine them to this stuff is a nightmare :'(

Hopefully nobody ever thinks of combining country and trance together.

I would gladly help anyone with doubts in this subject. Unfortunately reggaeton has this island (puerto rico) completely dominated. It is used as the anthems by which the people running for governors do their campaigns. It is the most listened music here and everywhere in the island. I have been listening to this music for quite a lot of years now and I have gotten to the point that I hate it. They call it "perreo" also refering to dogs... somehow related to the way it is danced... like dogs making out. Anyways, as already mentioned, Vico-C is one of its pioneers, yet it was more of spanish hip-hop and not so much reggaeton when he ruled. His songs are classics at our parties...

Right now the ones that are hittin the charts are probably :

Don Omar

Wisin

Daddy Yankee

etc....

Good luck listening to this music...

If u wanna hear this shit when it originated try finding these cds:

Playero (37, 38, or greatest hits)

The Noise (<---- anyone, I think they got til # 7 , dont remember)

This iffy club is not that iffy. It's actually a good thing in which it will give atarazana some competition. This iffy club is what Master's (the strip joint) used to be. It's now club 1800 and it's owner is a raggaeton artist himself.
