@ReggaetonXGata @RECWilliams @unagatasata @jennieknowless Is cross-cultural collaboration, such as what Cardi/B did in her track with Bad/Bunny & J/Balvin also necessary for the “rise” of Reggaeton? If so, then what’s stopping collaborations between Reggaeton and Hip-Hop artists? #trendingblkwilliams #g2

@ReggaetonXGata @RECWilliams @unagatasata @jennieknowless Reggaeton is now one of the most popular genres in Latinx music. However, it's still not as big as it can get, as Latinx people often look down at Reggaeton. In what ways can the Latinx community be convinced of Reggaeton’s respectability as a genre? #trendingblkwilliams #g2

@ReggaetonXGata @RECWilliams @unagatasata @jennieknowless u once spoke on the lack of Reggaetoneras due to the pressure placed on them to “put out.” Along w/ this, how do u think racism and colorism contribute to the suppression of women in Reggaeton, considering the few prominent ones are lightskinned?#trendingblkwilliams #g2

@ReggaetonXGata @RECWilliams @unagatasata @jennieknowless Q7: Thx! In regards to the space that Afro-Latina women occupy in Reggaeton, marginalized for both their race and gender, should it be an obligation for the more visible and prominent non-black and male artists to promote these women and their art? #trendingblkwilliams #g2

Through appropriation and distribution in dominant discourses, PC transforms select features of BPC from a means of constructing and maintaining community among Black folks to popular meanings of culture in all aspects of mainstream society. @nattachevy
