Urban music
Defining urban music is very difficult because the most popular music belongs to this genre, and it
changes every day. Urban music began in the 1980s and includes a multicultural diversity of amazing
artists. A large, mostly young audience listens to this music. Today’s popular artists belong to the urban
genre. Some examples of urban music are reggaeton and hip-hop. It also influences traditional rhythms
such as Latin pop, dance, soul, salsa, cumbia, and merengue, but it isn’t related to jazz or rock. Those are
different genres. The Latin Grammy Awards is an important ceremony that gives prizes to the best urban
songs, singers, and bands.
