Friends and followers of this blog might remember that I have written about Deevani (Ines Rooney) and how she upsets a linear narrative about reggaeton's development by highlighting a number of often neglected circuits.
Here is her latest collaboration with Fuego (from Chosen Few) called "Que Buena Tu Ta." While I have qualms about some of the imagery in the video, I do think sonically it's interesting to consider the fact that these two Dominican artists, one singing in Hindi, are able to skillfully blend Bhragra-pop, mambo urbano, and reggaeton thus highlighting the various movements of what we recognize today as "Caribbean rhythms."
Pretty dope if you ask me. Thoughts?
