We all know that Latin music has it roots in Africa due enslaved who were shipped to the South-Amerikas. Religious rhythms to execute worship ceremonies to the African gods camouflaged into song and dance (as African song and dance= worship) concealed the real meaning from the uninitiated (read: slavemasters). With finally the abolition of slavery and a greater freedom of expression it all flourished into what we see to today (shaking tits and ass flesh, a.k.a. Brazilian emancipation). But where do we read about Latin music coming back to Africa due merchant vessels and freed slaves coming back to their homeland? ...hmmm interesting
but then again, as we say here at d.l.o. “music knows no borders” .... this is Latin connection (made at 33°C) Enjoy!
