Salvadoran hip-hop

Salvadoran rap or Guanaco hip hop is a type of rap music that comes from El Salvador.

It is a style of music that emerged from groups such as Pescozada and Mecate in the late 1990s.

Salvadoran hip hop arose about 30 years ago following a large migration of Salvadorans to LA.

Their arrival occurred during a surge in popularity of hip hop in the United States, which allowed them to participate.

Salvadoran hip hop is still a smaller kind of music but it is an important part to communities and the lives of many Salvadorans.
