I like what I have heard so far. Dancehall is one of my favorite types of music so I like the similarities with a different flavor to it. Someone post some links if you have them.

Reggaeton is closer to rap than it is Dancehall.

For some reason I thought this thread was going to be about balding solutions.

Got good friends in Miami who have been handling all of Daddy Yankee, Tego Calderon, Young Dro, etc.
I've been on the set of one of those videos... crazy. Funny guys.

i predict UK producers will remix Reggaeton with Gare-rodge and Grime and serve it back to the US market through the body of some snagle-tooth 12 yr old girl from Brixton

totally hate it. In my opinion the music itself has no real depth to it and most of the lyrics I've heard from songs are also kind of shallow compare to other genres. I do however like some of the artists websites and cd covers. Daddy Yankee's site has won some design awards me thinks. Looks like the artists (or their media people) really have an eye for design.

I was reading in thepaper today about an act called Wisin and Yandel, they supposedly sampled some Dick Dale stuff. I cant find it anywhere.
I was introduced to that Brasilian Funk/Bass by Giles Petersen's BBC show... I cant find any of that stuff around.

i did some vj for a reggaeton party couple of weeks ago, at a baseball player's house.
it was like one of those parties you only see on hiphop videos (without the nudity)
i got bored vjaing tho., but the good thing is how some women dance it.
there were some dancers by the pool, and when they where dancing, i turned of the visuals and put the camera and drink and whatch.

i spew hate on it.
it makes no sense that it works at all other than the fact that hispanic community is growing in the US and there is always going to be a demand.

its a music gender and very commercial, so most of it sounds the same.
but has annyone heard residente calle 13? well, his stuff is nice.
and if you speak spanish, he has some nice lyrics.

reggaeton is music for teens, its the next step from listening to raffi or teletubies.. kids love it and feel identified with it these days..
that's it..
please don't compare it to dancehall..

- school. these are some of the people who started the gender back in the 90s. (i think they used to be gangs)
i think this might be close to dance hall? not sure, havent listened to much dancehal my self to compare.
