Música negra
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Musica negra is a type of Latin American music initially developed by black slaves in South America, in particular Peru, where it is known as musica criolla. Musica negra's influences are largely West African music and Spanish music. Notable artists and groups include Lucila Campos, Pepe Vásquez and Perú Negro. One of the more famous songs to come out of this genre is Peru's "Toro Mata."
