I believe that art is a style that people can express through all different types of ways, Dancing, Painting, Singing, Playing an Instrument, etc. I think it brings all types of cultural backgrounds that support one another. In both readings, We can see how dancing can play a role through a music style background.
In American Sabor, Hip Hop is a type of music where it has the tool where we can remember things that are close to us. Hip hop is a genre of music "that was created by African Americans, Puerto Ricans, and other young Caribbean youth in New York" ( Pg.208). Hip Hop is a big influential genre today for most Americans because it expresses how people feel and what they say in their songs. With Hip Hop, people can breakdance to and have dance battles to the beat of the songs and can have people come together to show off their skills.
Another piece of evidence I found was in Martha Gonzalez's article,, I read about how people can learn the meaning behind other people's dancing and what they are trying to express from the dancing. Like when I saw one of the girls dancing on the zoom conference on May 30th, and how she expressed herself. But in Martha Gonzalez's article, she says " Tarima is the center of the fandango and bailadoras are respected and praised for their ability to maintain balance" ( Pg. 366 ) I think that was a really great piece
The 2 songs that I have chosen for this post were " Juju on that Beat " by Zay Hilfigerr and Zayion McCall, and Michael Jacksons Hit Song " Thriller" by Michael Jackson
These are the songs that I have picked because these songs have dances that originated from these songs and they became popular and they have gone to become viral videos and have been popular to this day
