In this episode of Ritmo and Roots, we take a nostalgic journey back to the 2000s—a transformative decade where music, identity, and culture collided in fresh and unexpected ways. From the explosion of reggaeton to the rise of Latin pop crossovers, the unstoppable force of hip-hop and rap, and the Bay Area's infectious dance movements, we explore how the sounds of the 2000s shaped a generation and left an indelible mark on global culture. Through personal stories, cultural analysis, and iconic tracks, we revisit the beats that defined an era and still resonate today.
