I am reading a book of essays about regional Mexican music and migration (Musica sin fronteras: ensayos sobre migracion, musica, e identidad) and am learning so much about regional Mexican music. It's really interesting and is making me stop every half page to google something. <3 (also it's in Spanish so I am learning a lot of new musical vocabulary)

Haven’t figured out why Peso Pluma is getting crossover attention that prior regional Mexican musicians didn’t get
