I would feel mostly meh about reggaeton if it wasn't the one and only thing everyone ever hears in a 300km radius of where I live. It's frankly sad that Latin America, having so much creativity and diversity in culture, ended up with such talentless noise as the absolutely dominant genre.
It's literally inescapable and an entire generation already only listens to reggaeton. It's lazy and unpleasant, combined with a completely commercial mindset.
I'm a huge fan of southamerican rock, and sadly is true that it has been drawn by that misogynistic shit.
But bands like Los 3 are still live and so many people still hear them, there is hope.
