This film will be played at The New Jacksonville Landing Cinematheque, admission is $8.00 per person. From its early roots in the impoverished barrios of Puerto Rico to its domination of the American urban music scene, Straight Outta Puerto Rico charts the rise of Reggaeton, a brazenly sexual and compellingly danceable mix of old-school rap, reggae, dance hall and in-your-face Spanish lyrics that galvanized the Puerto Rican economy and became an unstoppable force in urban music scenes around the world.
The film includes interviews and performances by Reggaeton’s biggest stars including Daddy Yankee, Tego Calderon, and Luny Tunes.
