Latin Pop
Latin pop is pop music made by Latin American and Spanish artists, usually sung in Spanish, with catchy choruses and polished production.
It mixes the song structures of US and European pop with Latin rhythms, romantic ballad traditions and, more recently, reggaeton beats. The style took shape over the second half of the 20th century and crossed over to a much wider, non-Latino audience in the late 1990s. It is smoother and more melody-led than urbano, and less tied to one country's folk tradition than regional styles.
Artists it is known for: Shakira, Ricky Martin, Luis Miguel, Enrique Iglesias.
