This article examines the lyrics of some Salsa songs, analyzing part of the aesthetic statements from Latin America, which mention the African Diaspora. This analysis values a progressive recognition of the African contribution in the Caribbean culture development, identifying the communities that use the legacy of this musical gender. Emphasis is made in four instances within the development of this music: the Afro-Cuban musical tradition in the first half of the 20th century, the Latin movement of New York and their later reception in Colombia and western Africa. |
