Abstract
When thinking of culture, Music is one of the elements that is related to, or used to help describe a place and the people that reside in the specific location. Latinx Culture is a fundamental tool that is used to not only describe a location but remind those who once immigrated to the United States their roots. Latinx Culture is what keeps Latinx people in the United States connected with their country of origin, with friends and families who are still in Latin America, and unite Latinx people when they feel like they are on their own. The purpose of this research is to analyze how Latinx musicians produce work based on their lives as latinos, through the meanings of transnationalism, acculturation and colorism. This research will also explain if Latinx music affects those who also consume it, especially if they are of Latinx background. From researching transnationalism in Latinx music, the politics of Latinx music in the United States and Interviewing Students of Latinx descent to analyze what categorizes Latinx music and how it impacts Latinx day to day lives. Overall Latinx music is a foundation to the lives of Latinos in the United States. It is used to express how Latinx feel, their dreams, their hopes and also their identity.
