3. “Suavemente” — The Merengue War: At the end of the 1990s merengue ruled supreme on the radio and television in Puerto Rico. Elvis Crespo’s “Suavemente” is perhaps the most famous example — a bonafide hit that helped popularize the genre all over the world. But how did this Puerto Rican hit become the most recognizable merengue song in a genre pioneered by Dominican musicians? The road to merengue’s ubiquity in Puerto Rico was a long and complicated one. It coincides with the rise of Dominican migration to Puerto Rico and involves a cultural battle fought in nightclubs, “fiestas patronales,” and high school proms around the archipelago. Tensions around immigration and race that developed during that time remain today. Reporter Ezequiel Rodríguez Andino tells the story of merengue’s rise in Puerto Rico, the ripple effects of this “musical war,” and what it all tells us about the relationship between Puerto Rico and the people from its sister-island: the Dominican Republic.

5. “Las Caras Lindas (De Mi Gente Negra)” — An Ode to Blackness: Catalino Curet Alonso (known as Don Tite) penned some 2,000 songs during his life — and around 200 were massive hits across Latin America. “Las Caras Lindas (De Mi Gente Negra)” is undeniably personal. Tite, who passed away in 2003, was proud to be an “Antillano of visibly African heritage.” While songs by other writers demean dark skin — or even exoticize it — “Las Caras Lindas” expresses Tite’s deep love for Blackness and Black people. And that love extends beyond Puerto Rico to all dark-skinned people everywhere: Las caras lindas de mi gente negra / The beautiful faces of my Black people Son un desfile de melaza en flor / They are a parade of molasses in bloom. Que cuando pasa frente a mí se alegra / And when I see them walk by, De su negrura todo el corazón / My whole heart rejoices in its Blackness. For anthropologist Bárbara Abadía-Rexach, the song also has personal resonance. In this episode, she explores how Tite’ by La Brega

1. "Preciosa" — The Other Anthem: For over a century, Puerto Rican musicians have been influential across the hemisphere. From the Harlem Hellfighters of WWI who helped develop jazz to the reggaetoneros who dominate today’s charts, Puerto Rican music is everywhere. We start the season with the island’s most celebrated composer Rafael Hernandez, who wrote beloved songs like “Lamento Borincano,” “Ahora Seremos Felices,” and “Perfume de Gardenias” – and one of the island’s unofficial anthems, “Preciosa.” It’s a love song written for Puerto Rico that praises the island’s beauty and, remarkably, also calls out the forces that oppress it. When Bad Bunny exploded onto the scene and became the most-streamed artist in the history of the world, it became undeniable that Puerto Rican lyrics – the poetry of what people sing about, the bregas in every chorus – resonate all over the hemisphere. In September, he put out a music video for his hit “El Apagón,” (“The Blackout,”) which then turned into a by La Brega

3. “Suavemente” — La guerra del merengue: En Puerto Rico, a finales de los noventa el merengue reinaba en la radio y en la televisión. "Suavemente" de Elvis Crespo es quizás el ejemplo más famoso de ese momento — un verdadero éxito que ayudó a popularizar el género en todo el mundo. Pero, ¿cómo esta canción puertorriqueña se convirtió en el merengue más reconocido de un género iniciado por músicos dominicanos? El camino hacia la ubicuidad del merengue en Puerto Rico fue largo y complicado. Dicho camino, coincide con el aumento de la migración dominicana en Puerto Rico y el desarrollo de una batalla cultural librada en clubes nocturnos, "fiestas patronales" y bailes de graduación alrededor de la isla. Las tensiones alrededor de temas migratorios y de raza que se desarrollaron durante ese tiempo continúan al sol de hoy. El reportero Ezequiel Rodríguez Andino cuenta la historia del ascenso del merengue en Puerto Rico, los efectos de esta “guerra musical” y lo que eso nos dice de la compli by La Brega
