Puerto Rican Pop
Puerto Rican pop is Spanish-language pop from Puerto Rico, ranging from romantic ballads to dance pop shaped by salsa and reggaeton.
The island has sent pop singers to the top of Latin charts since the boy band Menudo in the late 1970s and 1980s. Its pop tends to pair big, clear vocals with Caribbean rhythms, and since the 2000s it often shares producers and guest verses with reggaeton. What separates it from trap boricua and reggaeton is the focus on sung melodies and radio-friendly choruses.
Artists it is known for: Ricky Martin, Chayanne, Luis Fonsi, Kany García.
