13 Latin Artists Your Playlist Will Thank You For
These songs WILL get stuck in your head, but you won't regret it.
.
1. Ozuna
Ozuna is a Puerto Rican rapper and Reggaeton singer who has been at the top of the charts lately. You may recognize him from his hit "La Modelo" with Cardi B. Ozuna has been in the game since the early 2010s taking Latin America by storm, but has been making his name known worldwide recently. His music either gives you all the feels or makes you feel Iike no one can touch you, and both feel amazing.

2. Bad Bunny
Bad Bunny might just actually be the coolest person ever, from his style, to his voice, to the way he tackles issues of immigration and homophobia. He went from working in a grocery store in his home of Puerto Rico to selling out shows across North and South America. He dominates the Latin trap scene, uniting genres and breaking language barriers. We need more people like him.

3. Mon Laferte
This Chilean singer has the amazing style with a voice to match. She has this really cool indie vibe that is unique to her style, combined with some girl power; safe to say she's pretty iconic! Her music videos are such a treat to the eyes, too.

4. J Balvin
I would be lying if I said I didn't have a huge crush on him; his jovial personality, unique voice and colorful hair make this Colombian pretty lovable. He expresses his love and loyalty to Reggaeton and always wants to represent the Latin community in a positive light, showing the power of languages and how they can unite the world. He's even worked with Beyonce,
Song recommendation:
5. Calle 13
Throwing it back to the early 2000s, Calle 13's music is still just as iconic as it was then. The band doesn't necessarily fit into one specific genre, which is arguably what makes them so cool. You can hear the worldly influence of other genres in their music, and the band even moved on to covering a plethora of political issues. This band proved to be capable of pulling off multiple styles, genres, and topics, an area where many bands fall short.
