Dude,

I thought the whole point of this trip was to hook up with girls that are way more friendly than american chicks. Guess the grass isn’t always greener…

Interesting about cumbia villera. Lately I've gotten into what may be the Russian Mafia's version of that genre -- with the emphasis on drugs, crime, prison, gangs and police -- so-called "Chanson" music. Chanson however could never gain a serious foothold in the US, where fast-paced and shallow (like reggaeton) are considered good things, because chanson is slow, ballad-like, and not danceable. On the other hand it's very soulful and even though I don't understand the lyrics, impressive music. Just another consequence, I guess, in my pursuit of the perfect Russian babe...

Only very minimal signs of reggaeton-like music down there. On the other hand, there is a lot of real, live authentic REGGAE music, originating from the east coast of Nicaragua where there are significant populations of English-speaking people with Afro-Caribbean roots... yes, dreadlock-wearing rastamen in Nicaragua. There was even a reggae band from the east coast town of Bluefields, playing at one hotel where I was staying at in Managua. There's also a group of people called the Garifuna, descended from people who escaped from slave boats off of the island of St. Vincent in the eastern Caribbean, and were resettled by the British along the E. coast of Central America.

In Argentina it is more of a hybrid. More recently, "cumbia villera" (translation: cumbia from the slums) has also become popular, mainly dealing with topics related to drugs, crime, the police, and sex.

I've lived in Puerto Rico, and these two types of music are polar opposites in terms of the quality of the music and performers, and the people who listen to them. You've GOT to be kidding... Reggaeton can hardly be called a real genre of music -- it is the most shallow and derivative thing I've ever heard. If "Daddy Yankee" ever comes peddling that noise he calls music 'round DC way, please, somebody, get out the butterfly nets and the van and haul his Yankee's-cap, gold chains wearin' ass off to St. E's. That "music" is FOUL. Roosh, I’m surprised that you hate salsa but love that shit reggaeton.

I am not sure about Salta, but in Buenos Aires those which are considered to be the coolest places DO NOT play salsa AT ALL. I would love them to, because I love to dance that sort of stuff, but whenever I am there, I have to spend the whole night listening to electronic music. I danced much more salsa during my years in DC and in Oxford than in BA! Then again, girls in the cooler spots tend to be much less bang-able that in the salsa places. Particularly portenas, who have a reputation of being hard to get. Argentine men have developed smooth game tactics over the years in response. I look forward to hear how your skills compare to their charms...
