We are off to Central America this week and to the Republic of El Salvador.
It has been in the news recently for its mega prisons where any Latino with a tattoo in Trump's America runs the risk of ending up.
You should be aware of the Gang culture with gangs such as MS-13 and Barrio 18. I am assuming that there is an associated rap scene which goes hand in hand with them but you will be glad to know that I have made no effort to track it down.
Like many South and Central American countries El Salvador is associated with the Cumbia genre of Latin music known for its lively rhythms and dance traditions. An act who fit neatly into this category are Mario Roberto y su Orquestra Canela with their tune El Superman (En Vivo)
Mario is followed by Los Hermanos Flores with Salvadorena. Shaka Y Dres is rightly concerned about the climate and Global Warming as his song Cambio Climatico demonstrates.
Some Salvadorian Death Metal you say? Look no further than Fleshless Entity with VersVm. That one might go down well with the gangs.
If that has your ears ringing here is Analu Dada with Quiero Saber to soothe them somewhat.
We are back in Africa next time round.
