It's that time of the year — figuring out the best Latin music of 2024. And every year, it gets harder and harder (seriously, it's difficult!) for Ana and Felix to narrow down their extensive lists. Joined by NPR culture reporter Isabella Gomez Sarmiento, the three round up the best albums of this year.
Songs featured in this episode:
- Angélica Garcia, "El Que" from Gemelo
- Hinds, "Coffee" from Viva Hinds
- Spanish Harlem Orchestra, "Lluego El Caballero (feat. Gilberto Santa Ross)" from Swing Forever
- Latin Mafia, "tengo mucho ruido." from TODOS LOS DÍAS TODO EL DÍA
- RaiNao, "readysita" from CAPICÚ
- Orquesta Akokán, "Caracoles" from Caracoles
