Dominican Music

[Africaida]

A little known fact is that Salsa was super big in Africa. I grew up listening to Salsa, that s the music our parents listened to in their youth. My mom sings songs in Spanish to this day. A couple of years ago, I took my uncle to the legendary Casa Latina record store in East Harlem which he knew since came in the 70's to NYC for the day to buy Salsa records !

That s the sound of childhood right there !!

I don't know much about music, but just by looking at the videos published here: men, men and more men.
And if a street poster advertises a new concert you are 90% likely to see a fat guy with a guitar.
Thank you guys, you won't get my penny.

The purpose of this thread is to post Dominican/Spanish speaking videos. I have mainly focused on Dominican songs with the majority of them being Merengue bands which were mostly men. I see nothing wrong with that. Please feel free to post videos of women. There is room for both.

You mentioned not knowing much about music so let me recommend a woman. Check out Milly Quezada and listen to her music and then come back and post your favorites.

enjoy!

Girls? How about Las Chicas Del Can

Carlos, nothing against the thread. I am simply commenting the sickening over-presence of men in the Dominican music industry.
How often do you hear a female voice from the loudspeakers when you walk past a Dominican colmado?

Understood but this is not the thread to discuss this. The purpose here is to post videos. You will see comments to discuss history or background on a video posted but that’s about it.

Feel free to open a new thread to discuss why you think women are underrepresented in Dominican music and I will give you my perspective.

Let’s not steer this thread off course.

Women that starts off this video singing and next to Juan Luis Guerra is Maridalia Hernandez. Nice voice and good career.

Here’s Milly when she was in a band with her sister Jocelyn. Her sister stepped away from the limelight and focused on the lord. Jocelyn recently lost her husband, a pastor, to Coronavirus.

I think she has an amazing voice....some of her bachatas are fabulous.

El Prodigio of course. Not from this planet how he handles the instrument...

This one reminds me of when the disco at Matum Hotel used to be called Alcazar Club.
