Wisin y Yandel and Street Dance 2

Today I have music for you by one of my favorite Latin artists/duos, Wisin y Yandel. This song is probably my favorite one by them for a multitude of reasons. First, this song has a sick beat and an awesome melody. It retains that traditional Latin sound with the pipes but also integrates the more modern electronic and bass sound to it. Second, this song is a phenomenal dance song. Seriously. This song comes on and no one can stay still. If you are like me, you dance quietly in your room and if anyone ever walked in they would immediately leave or laugh because I go hard. But even in public, I have to sway a little or head bang, and of course I mouth the lyrics all the time. Which brings me to the next point. This song brilliantly fuses English R&B and rap with the Latin style of music. A lot of people do fusions now, but when this song came out, I had never heard anything better than this. Even today I think this is one of the best fusions I have heard. This song is just so vivacious and energetic. It makes you want to get up and move on your own accord. Wisin y Yandel really know how to produce a song that is catchy, danceable, and fun. I really love all of their music for this reason and the fact that it is a pretty progressive style of Latin music. If you enjoy this kind of music I highly recommend you go listen to the rest of their music because it is just as good and really spans the Latin-English spectrum. Today's instrumental song is from the movie Street Dance 2. While this movie was alright, the music used was pretty darn awesome. This song was used for a Latin number which was pretty boss. This song definitely combines the idea of traditional Latin music and the modern electronic style. This song spends a lot more time emphasizing the different styles of drum beats. This is definitely a good song to start dancing to or to learn how to do Latin dances. I hope you enjoy the music and please feel free to comment!
