Reaggetón
An old guy.
Strong dad’s jokes game.
Second time cleaning his house.
@ Loop.
Him: “You know I had to do my research and got some great music for you today. Last time it was very quiet, I apologize”
He plays music on his TV while I play with his dog (of course).
Me: Pitbull?! (Really confused)
Him: “Yeah, It’s pretty contagious”
Me: “Oh well thank you. He is Cuban from Miami I think. But if you want to listen to some nice Cuban music, I’m going to put Silvio Rodríguez, deal?”
He is happy, I am happy. I find “El Necio” and play it.
He loves it!
Him: “Such nice guitar, what does it say?”
Me: “Mostly a song for Fidel Castro, about living without a price and being clear of your convictions…”
Silence.
Little more of silence.
Him: “Nice”
