What a sweet surprise! @NPRCodeSwitch is playing a vintage episode of @AltLatino in which we talk about the history of Cumbia. It’s one of my favorites! Check it out. npr.org/2022/12/16/114…
Whether you're from Ushuaia or East Los Angeles, you've likely heard cumbia blaring from a stereo. This week, @AltLatino revisits a classic episode from 2015 and takes a closer look at the musical backbone of the Americas. npr.org/2022/12/01/114…
🎵Tap into your rhythm for this week’s episode y’all: we’re diving deep into cumbia! 🎶Our play friends from @AltLatino take us on cumbia’s journey through Latin America and how it has shaped the Latin American music we know and love. npr.org/1143635185
A neat conversation on the origins and evolution of Cumbia music. I already digged cumbia but Felix and Jasmine from @AltLatino highlight all the influences of more modern Cumbia, including dabbles of ska and 60s surfer rock. Very cool encore! npr.org/2022/12/16/114…
Using a carefully curated mix of soulful verses, bouncy beats and elaborately executed hair flips, @yendryofficial got the crowd *moving* on the second night of our 15th anniversary celebration. n.pr/3jj9l8r
What were your favorite albums and songs from 2022? Our staff here at NPR Music shared our personal top 10 picks of the year ⬇️ n.pr/3jgB4ql
I love reading through the @nprmusic year-end staff picks 🥰 n.pr/3HQM7AH
Fi O'Reilly Sánchez is a production assistant on @AltLatino, so she obv knows a thing or two about music! Her 2022 faves range from Rico Nasty's album "Las Ruinas," to Natalia Lafourcade's "María la Curandera." Check out the rest of her picks here: n.pr/3WGL3DV
If there's one thing @NPR culture desk producer @isabellamariags has, it's taste! From Julieta Venegas' album "Tu Historia" to SZA's "F2F," these are Isabella's top albums and songs of 2022. Give 'em a listen! npr.org/2022/12/21/114…
Another total banger by @jabladoraaa on Bad Bunny npr.org/2022/12/15/113…
@jessicawluther oh and shows/podcasts about music like @AltLatino @HorizontesKUTX @TheBreaksKUTX
In the apogee of his career, the biggest pop star on the planet used his platform to decry the neocolonial injustices ravaging his home. Read Isabelia Herrera’s (@jabladoraaa) piece on Bad Bunny’s successfully defiant and political pop domination now: npr.org/2022/12/15/113…
Musically, UVST might be Benito’s most conventional release yet, but it can’t be separated from the political context that surrounds it.
On “Andrea,” @sanbenito narrated the story of a woman seeking to live life on her terms and when the video for “El Apagón” dropped, it was bookended by a 20-minute documentary exposing the gentrification and upheaval generated by wealthy Americans swooping down on Puerto Rico.
But Benito is more than a global star. He's also a political provocateur who refuses to sacrifice space for play.
He was Spotify’s most streamed artist in the world for the third year in a row. He had the highest-grossing tours of 2022 and 'Un Verano Sin Ti' became the first Spanish-language album to be nominated for album of the year at the Grammys.
We ranked a list of 100 songs that reflects the sprawling, energetic messiness of 2022. Start listening. n.pr/3PrEgvr
