Discover the music and dance that emerged from Afro-Indigenous artists of the Americas. Mambo 2 Hip Hop explores not only famous artists and their unique contributions to music, but also the political and socio-economic forces that helped create them. Learn the basic similarities and differences between artists of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries and the cultural sounds that weaved a whole new contemporary art movement.
