Overview

Puerto Rico‘s story is one of conquest, occupation, and resistance. On this self-guided audio walking tour through San Juan‘s streets, we‘ll trace the evolution of Reggaetón from protest to mainstream music and bring the island‘s history to life. We‘ll follow this story starting with Puerto Rico‘s colonial roots at El Capitolio, the Capitol Building. From there, I‘ll introduce you to Reggaetón and show you several famous nightclubs which fostered some of the most renowned artists of this genre. I‘ll tell you how it was illegal to record, sell or play Reggaetón in radio stations across the island during the 90s. You‘ll have an opportunity to explore the famous La Perla neighborhood where our tour ends. You‘ll find out how the community has fought gentrification, hear about their strict ‘no photographs‘ policy, and see where the music video for Despacito was filmed.
