There was an Ivy Queen before the arrival of Karol G and Bad Bunny, and even before the reguet n became a global phenomenon. The Caballota. Unquestionably, Reina del Reguet n.
El reguet n blends hip-hop with Latino rhythms and dances to create a lively and energetic musical genre. Ivy Queen was there from the beginning, driving its growth.
This October, you will go to Connecticut to give a presentation at the Palace Theater in Waterbury. For many members of the many Puerto Rican and Latina communities in the state, their arrival signifies a long-awaited moment of recognition.
From the beginning of her career, which encompasses more than two cadas, Ivy Queen entered the largely male realm of the reguet with bold words and an impressive presence. Their songs “Diva” and “Sentimiento” were g-nerd references, while songs like “Yo quiero bailar” and “La vida es as” became his own emblems of encouragement.
This legado has not been forgotten. With accolades like the Billboard Latin Music Awards, ASCAP awards, Grammy Latino nominations, and inclusion in the list of the 25 Most Beautiful Women in Spain, Ivy Queen has gained industry recognition.
I would like to bailar.
The reguet was at its height in the first few years of the new millennium in Latin America and the United States, although there are people who appear in the ports, and they were almost always men in the composition of the letters. Ivy Queen changed that, and it’s more obvious in the song “Yo quiero bailar” than in the song itself.
Particularly, this song was performed by Christie Col n, a DJ with a reputation in New Haven and the ability to perform at DJ Christie Weddings & Events. Talk about women’s autonomy over their bodies… just because a baile contigo does not imply that the outcome will be X. And nobody at all uses the words “as” in that passage.
Ivy Queen’s words were directed at a generation of women who aren’t interested in rebajarse, according to Coln. It illustrates what it means to occupy spaces in the study, the scene, and daily life.
Ivy Queen’s influence includes more than just music, according to Nina V. Zquez-Rosa, a Meriden public historian who specializes in Puerto Rican and religious history.
Asever V. Zquez-Rosa has been a very significant icon, not just for women in the region but for all women. Women with long hair, women who play both masculine and feminine roles, and women who dress like women. I believe that the reason Ivy Queen has become an icon is because she leads women of all classes.
I would like to capture its power in a single song. Even now, as DJ Col stated, the song continues to be a hit, bringing in the dance numbers, confirming their presence, and proving that Ivy Queen’s voice wasn’t just a moment but a movement.
Motivated by the Ivy Queen
This movement inspired women like Col., who faced obstacles in the music industry. She recalled how difficult it was to be recognized as a DJ despite being a woman.
I was taken seriously by Nadie. As a result, se re a de m, relat Col n. However, just like Ivy Queen, she continued to advance, blending music, getting to know it, and making notes until no one could ignore it.
According to V. Zquez-Rosa, Ivy Queen’s influence begins at a young age.
“She was a role model to follow back when I was alive,” he said. A puertorrique woman who was proud of her culture and presence in places where she wasn’t always welcomed.
Their influence on my style has been enormous. Aretes grandes, u as largas… [I] always have to be like the Ivy Queen, I admit.
Both women feel a strong connection to Ivy Queen, not only as a musical artist but also as a symbol of empowerment. Ivy Queen has demonstrated to them and many others by her music and presence that women deserve to be respected, heard, and given their place in any setting.
Because of this, their first presentation in Connecticut is the kind of event that people remember.
We love Latin music in Connecticut, declares Col. We live in a very diverse state, and the arrival of artists like Ivy Queen will inspire a sense of unity among the people.
For V. Zquez-Rosa, it is a significant moment: It means that there is finally a community that is perceived and has been made visible.
Ivy Queen teaches us to be mindful of our power, presence, and impact. “This aspect of life is not limited to fans alone,” V. Zquez-Rosa said. It is for anyone who appreciates music that moves a large number of people.
I suggest V. Zquez-Rosa if you enjoy the song and are looking for something you haven’t heard before, but you’re not sure because you believe that the genre is exclusive for guys. You must listen to the Ivy Queen.
It doesn’t matter if you know their memorized words from middle school or if this is your first time hearing their name; this Ivy Queen pre-final presentation is a rare occasion in Connecticut.
Y Col n y V zquez-Rosa agree: you won’t be asking to die.
