The music of Puerto Rico has evolved as a heterogeneous and dynamic product of diverse cultural resources. The most conspicuous musical sources have been Spain and West Africa although many aspects of Puerto Rican music reflect origins elsewhere in Europe and the Caribbean and in the last century the USA. Puerto Rican music culture today comprises a wide and rich variety of genres ranging from essentially indigenous genres like bomba to recent hybrids like reggaeton.
