The other day they were announcing a Cumbia concert and most of the music in the background are popular Bachata and Merengue songs but played as cumbia.
Two examples are my very favorite songs right how: Raulin's Hay Hombe and Toros Band's Vuelve Mi Reina. They are now playing the Cumbia versions more often on the radio. I'm upset that Raulin's version is only played during Domincan programs or special times, not during regular programming. I also will like to add that they sound TERRIBLE as cumbias!!
I KNOW it is very popular to just steal some music, specially in with this genre. But I really want to give both Los Toros Band and Raulin the benefit of the doubt since both are very popular and usually pretty credible...
I'm wondering who took from who here? - and I sigh because I know the answer, but still! What gives??
