Calle 13. The debut release of Calle 13 in late 2005 offered a refreshing alternative to the mass of reggaeton concurrently overrunning popular Latin music. Comprised of vocalist Residente (born René Pérez) and producer Visitante (Eduardo Cabra), the duo isn't a standard reggaeton act. Make no mistake, though. To a degree their music is reggaeton -- that unmistakable rhythm is front and center, and Residente does rap over the beats as you might expect -- but there's much more to it than that. For one, the beats of Visitante are inventive, incorporating aspects of hip-hop and characteristics of electronica, and are a world apart from the industry-standard trademark of Luny Tunes and that production team's assembly line of bandwagon-jumping imitators. Secondly, the raps of Residente eschew reggaeton clichés, showcasing a healthy sense of humor and an almost clownish approach to sarcasm (à la Eminem) -- again, a world apart from the kingly bravado of most reggaeton vocalists, and the obligatory glimmers of misogyny and violence that accompany such streetwise swaggering.

    Calle 13 “Multi Viral” Video Album: Politics, Media Manipulation and Palestine By Timothy Alexander Guzman Theme: History, Media Disinformation Global Research, February 27, 2014 Silent Crow News and Global Research We feel the need to help achieve change in the music industry, a favourable change, that is. Artists must remain in control to the extent that this is possible”Puerto Rico’s Calle 13 Collaborated on a new album with Wikileaks founder Julian Assange, Tom Morello of Rage Against the Machine (RATM) and Palestinian Singer Kamilya Jubran. Other tracks on the album feature author of Open Veins of Latin America, Eduardo Galeano. The album called ‘Multi_Viral’ against news manipulation and political repression is to be released this coming March. It is political and indeed very interesting. It is a new generation of protest music that will grab worldwide attention. According to an online magazine www.venuemagazine.com: Multi_Viral is Calle 13’s first album under their own record label, El Abismo (The Abyss), allowing them to have more creative and artistic freedom than ever before. “An artist should have control over their art in every way possible”, says René, vocalist and songwriter of the band. It’s this state-of-mind that has set Calle 13 apart from the reggaeton genre pushing boundaries with satirical lyrics and social commentary about Latin American issues and culture Multi-viral music video is in Spanish, English and Arabic.

  • Junot Díaz's the Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao and René Pérez
    Middle Atlantic Review of Latin American Studies, 2018 Vol. 2, No. 2, 66-80 Caribbean Cosmopolitanism: Junot Díaz’s The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao and René Pérez Joglar’s Residente Kathleen Cunniffe Peña Wilson College [email protected] “All the great artists have had one foot in and one foot out.” – Terry Eagleton, Saint Oscar In recent political discourse, “cosmopolitanism” has become synonymous with elitism and disloyalty to national values. However, this discourse ignores the varied history of cosmopolitanism, both as an aesthetic and a worldview. Not all cosmopolitanism is rootless, as demonstrated by Kwame Anthony Appiah’s Ethics of Identity (2005), which proposes identity based on “rooted cosmopolitanism.” And as James Clifford (1997) points out, travel—and cosmopolitanism, along with it—is no longer, or perhaps never has been, reserved for wealthy elites. Clifford emphasizes that travel not only includes “Westerners” traveling to developing countries but also the reverse, and the second kind of traveler follows a different trajectory of cosmopolitanism. This article examines cosmopolitanism in the work of two contemporary Caribbean artists: Dominican-American author Junot Díaz and Puerto Rican musician René Juan Pérez Joglar. The protagonist of Díaz’s The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao (2007) lives the tensions inherent in nationalist and cosmopolitan impulses: like the author, the novel moves between the Dominican Republic and the United States. The title alludes to Irish writer and famed cosmopolitan, Oscar Wilde. Although criticism of the novel has not drawn any connection to Wilde beyond the title itself, this paper suggests that Díaz’s work relates to Wilde on deeper levels related to cosmopolitanism, particularly as Wilde tied this notion to the struggle for individualism.
