Colombia

Colombia's music blends Amerindian, African and Spanish influences and shifts from region to region, spanning everything from vallenato and cumbia to salsa, pop and rock.

Its Caribbean folk roots show here in the vallenato of Carlos Vives and Diomedes Díaz and the salsa of Grupo Niche and Joe Arroyo, while its modern pop and reggaeton wave is among the strongest anywhere: Shakira, J Balvin, Karol G, Maluma, Feid, Sebastián Yatra and Camilo.
