Borders in Music

One of my examples is Freddy Sky, a Panamanian "Reggae" singer with his song "Dime que si"
which has a Hip-Hop rythm and the lyric is in Spanish. He made up his own song, only that he used Hip-Hop for it.

Comando Tiburon "Te Pille", with an Afro-Caribbean rythm that is known in Panama for a long time because of our mixed ethnicity and races.

Jimmy Bad Boy - "Sigo Pensando en ti", This song has Trance/Electro rythm that comes originally from Europe.

In my country we can find different type of mixed rythms on our music because we have different races influences on our culture. When Panama was starting to grow as a city we received people from different ethnic roots and races. For example: African-Americans, Jews, Europeans, Asian, Indians, and bunch of other different races. That's why Panama is called "Crisol de Razas" or "Rainbow of Races."
