New Post: From ‘Ritmo’ to ‘Despacito’: The 21 Greatest Summer Songs of the Last Decade - https://lnkd.in/dpaGDanC - The summer season not only brings longer and hotter days, but also an incredible selection of music with perfect songs to accompany all the fun activities of the most relaxed time of the year. There are many songs that gain momentum each summer, but only a few reach the top of Billboard’s Hot Latin Songs chart, becoming the most popular tunes of the season. Undoubtedly, the last 10 years have produced tracks worthy of inclusion in the playlists of 2024: urban-flavored tracks like “Bailando” by Enrique Iglesias featuring Descemer Bueno and Gente de Zona, which took over the summer of 2014, and “El perdón” by Nicky Jam and Enrique Iglesias which conquered the top of the chart for 30 weeks in 2015. And let’s not forget the global phenomenon that was “Despacito” by Luis Fonsi and Daddy Yankee, whose impact transcended beyond 2017 and to date continues to be heard around the world. Nor can we fail to mention the Mexican music hit “Ella Baila Sola” by Eslabon Armado and Peso Pluma, which swept the summer of 2023. In addition to the phenomenon of “Gata Only”, which has been at the top of the chart for 14 weeks in 2024 and with which FloyyMenor and Cris MJ made history as the first Chileans to enter the top 10 of the chart in 25 years. Get ready to embark on a nostalgic musical journey through the Latin songs that accompanied your moments under the sun for the past 10 years. From “Ritmo” to “Despacito,” here are all the songs that were crowned No. 1 hits on the Hot Latin Songs chart each year between June and August, in chronological order. - #news #business #world -------------------------------------------------- Download: #Google #Font #Tester - https://lnkd.in/gKAZYbVN

On this episode of Arts Engines, Aaron Dworkin spoke with Marvin Curtis, Board President of the South Bend Symphony Orchestra, about the role of board members in advancing DE&I efforts. Curtis emphasized the need for authentic, community-centered approaches to change. Takeaways from Marvin: ▪️ Collaboration with Decision-Makers: Open dialogues with the Conductor and Executive Director ensure that DE&I efforts are deeply embedded, not just performative. ▪️ Action and Accountability: It's critical to establish benchmarks for progress, such as increasing board diversity and programming works by composers of color. ▪️ Community Focus: Initiatives like offering Spanish translations at concerts demonstrate how to prioritize inclusion and cultural relevance. Curtis urges us to "be BOLD" in the face of resistance, especially as conversations around justice face backlash. With opposition, the commitment to equity is crucial, as Curtis says, “At the end of the day, it's about being present and working for better futures in music.” #Arts #Culture #Music #Orchestras #BoardLeadership #Community #Justice #Diversity #Equity #Inclusion
