Complete Freedom - http://www.reverbnation.com/luischaluisan - "It's clear that Salsa has its deepest roots in Cuban Son and that due to the blockade and the political climate of the 1960's, less information started to come out of Cuba. That break was a decisive factor in the birth of Salsa, which emerges as the grafting of the musical folklore of other Latin American countries onto son that distinguishes son from Salsa. While son has specific structure, SALSA IS PURE FREEDOM, which means it can start with a guaguanco and finish with a Puerto Rican aguinaldo, with a dash of Brazilian batucada or a passage from Mozart."
In many ways, this definition can be extrapolated to explore my own personal development as a Nuyorican Artist. Our poetry has its deepest roots in the storytelling "declamadores" (orators) from Puerto Rico. We added the doo wop, swagger and soul of the Bronx (all Boroughs) to the staged readings. This is what I saw and ran with in my own creative trajectory placing my hand in art, music and Theater/Film. But never for fame. It was, is and forever be about communication and The Movement.
