Lo que hace Arcangel no es reggaeton.. | 13 Mar 2008

Polaco y Arcangel podrian hacer un show de reconciliacion


Luego del desgraciado incidente entre Polaco y Arcángel, Carmen Santos, la madre de este último, hablaba tranquilamente con el primero. ¿Qué quiere decir esto? Pues que no hay lío entre ellos y que usted puede esperar un show de ellos juntos.

PERO la experiencia que vivieron muchos niños que siguen al artista no fue la mejor. Por sólo dar un ejemplo, la señora Norma Mattei me llamó diciendo que sus hijos habían venido desde la isla para ver el show de Arcángel y que una de sus niñas, de 12 años, no pudo dormir esa noche, pues se despertaba gritando como si estuviera viendo el incidente nuevamente. ¡Hasta esto ha provocado la actitud de estos reguetoneros!
LA cantidad de malas palabras que dijo Arcángel y las cosas que se salieron de contexto no se pueden tolerar, pues uno paga por ver un espectáculo, no una lucha libre. Hasta el Colegio de Productores los censuró.
ACTOS como éstos tiran por la borda gestos positivos, como los que han hecho otros reguetoneros con organizaciones sin fines de lucro o situaciones individuales de ayuda a personas.
El que está bien caliente es Harold Rosario, quien también es el relacionista público de Arcángel. Acabando de salir del show con Magali Febles, ahora le cae este lío.

POR cierto, la licenciada Zoé Laboy le enviaría hoy, miércoles, una carta a Magali Febles para que le dé acceso a Harold a los documentos y cosas personales que tiene en la oficina que ocupaba con la conocida peluquera. Así que parece que esto va para largo.
Nuevamente Jowell & Randy la hicieron: no llegaron a Aguadilla para un show y el Alcalde tuvo que volver a montar otra actividad para que pudieran presentarse.

Bueno, y en el juicio que se sigue contra William Omar Landrón “Don Omar” se ve cada cosa... El que no sepa nada del caso, o no vive en la Isla o sencillamente está enajenado de la vida. Por ello me parece difícil que encuentren miembros del jurado que no estén contaminados. Pero el licenciado Joaquín Monserrate Matienzo, abogado de William, asegura que sí. Ojalá así sea, pues las incongruencias se han manifestado reiteradamente y todos sabemos que, si no fuera figura pública, esto se hubiese acabado hace tiempo.

Para los que se preguntan qué hará Carlos Sacco en Telemundo, sepan que tendrá un programa los fines de semana, aunque no sabe si será sábado o domingo. Esta semana está armando el equipo de producción que debe ser capacitado, creativo, positivo y disciplinado para trabajar con él.
“La próxima semana me reúno con Hilary Hatler para decidir el nombre, día y la hora del programa, y los animadores”, dijo Sacco.

Como no tiene exclusividad, podrá seguir los domingos en el canal 13.
Y hablando de Carlos Sacco, el escritor Juan Morales Velásquez, que hizo los libros sobre La Lupe, Celia Cruz y está terminando el de Ismael Rivera, vendrá a la Isla para comenzar un libro sobre la historia de los Sacco, padre e hijo, y su influencia en la televisión latinoamericana.

Latin music: SALSA
Latin music: MERENGUE
Merengue is a type of lively, joyful music and dance that comes from the Dominican Republic. It is popular in the Dominican Republic, and all over Latin America. Merengue means whipped egg whites and sugar in Spanish, similar to the English word meringue. It is unclear as to why this name became the name of the latin music of the Dominican Republic. But, perhaps, It can trace its meaning from the movement on the latin dance floor that could remind one of an egg beater in action. This style of music was created by Ñico Lora, a Dominican of Spaniard descent, in the 1920s; however, in the Dominican Republic it was promoted by Rafael Trujillo, the dictator from the 1930s through the early 1960s, and eventually became the country’s national music and dance style, and in the United States it was popularized by Angel Viloria and his band Conjunto Típico Cibaeño. It was during the Trujillo era that the popular merengue, "Compadre Pedro Juan", by Luis Alberti, became an international hit. World famous Merengue singers include Cherito, Miriam Cruz & Las Chicas Del Can, Los Hermanos Rosario, Juan Luis Guerra, Wilfrido Vargas, Sergio Vargas, Johnny Ventura, Zafra Negra, Josie Esteban y la Patrulla 15, Pochy y su Cocoband, Fernando Villalona, Cuco Valoy, The Freddie Kenton Orquestra, Elvis Crespo, La Makina, Hector Acosta, Los Toros Band and Conjunto Quisqueya. Other merengu artists popular in the Dominican Republic as of 2006 include Julian, Toño Rosario, Aguakate, and Amarfis. Milly Quezada is known as the Queen of Merengue. The popularity of Merengue is growing fast in Puerto Rico, due to the high Dominican influence. Such Puerto Rican Merengueros include Elvis Crespo, Olga Tañon, Grupo Mania, Limite 21. The traditional instrumentation for a conjunto típico (traditional band), the usual performing group of folk merengue, is a diatonic accordion, a two sided drum held on the lap called a tambora, and a güira. A güira (Gwee-ra) is a merengue percussion instrument that sounds like a maraca but in fact is a sheet of metal perforated with a nail, shaped into a cylinder, and played with a stiff brush. The güira is brushed steadily on the downbeat with a "and-a" thrown in at certain points, or played in more complex patterns that generally mark the time. "Caballito" rhythm, or a quarter and two eighths, is also common. Want to know more on merengue: info@ritmomontreal.com
History of Salsa music: In the 1930s, latin music within Cuba was evolving into new styles derived primarily from son and rumba, while the latin Cubans in New York, living among many Latin from Puerto Rico and elsewhere, began playing their own distinctive styles, influenced most importantly by African American music. Their music included son and guarachas, as well as tango, bolero and danza, with prominent influences from jazz. While the New York scene continued evolving, Cuban popular latin music, especially mambo, became very famous across the United States. This was followed by a series of other genres of Cuban latin music, which especially affected the Latin scene in New York. Many Latin musicians in New York were Puerto Rican, and it was these performers who innovated the style now known as salsa music, based largely off Cuban, and to a lesser extent, Puerto Rican latin music. The diasporic nature of these Cuban and Puerto Rican communities in New York, which set the foundation for the expansion, and eventual creation of, the genre now known as salsa. With the influx of Puerto Rican and Cuban immigrants in America since the 1950s, a unique Afro-Caribbean diaspora was in play for salsa. Artists such as Willie Colón, amongst others, were well known for traveling back and forth between The Bronx and his homeland of Puerto Rico. In his travels to and from, Willie Colón collected influences of the Afro-Cuban, Puerto Rican, and Nuyorican communities and demonstrated these through much of his salsa music. Alongside another Salsa pioneer, Héctor Lavoe, both artists combined salsa musical traditions in a manner that showcased and in many ways reflected the culture and soundscape of their New York barrios while still paying homage to their beloved Puerto Rico. Salsa evolved steadily through the later 1970s and into the '80s and '90s. New instruments were adopted and new national styles, like the sala music of Brazil, were adapted to salsa. New subgenres appeared, such as the sweet love songs called salsa romantica, while salsa became a major part of the music scene in Venezuela, Mexico and as far away as Japan. Diverse influences, including most prominently hip hop music, came to shape the evolving genre. By the turn of the century, salsa was one of the major fields of popular music in the world, and salsa stars were international celebrities. Source: Wikipedia.org
