Julieta Venegas - Primer Dia

I love it when artists genre-bend. Especially when it comes out sounding better than the classics. Here, the ever-talented Julieta Venegas turns her hand to reggaeton, and utterly kills it.

There's the classic Dem Bow riddim at the bottom, and then an accordion on top, and Julieta belting out some post-feminist lyrics in her faultlessly rich voice. It sounds like a river of melted chocolate flowing through a dancehall, with Mexican accordion players floating in boats on the river, serenading passing dancers. Seriously.

Also, the video is a masterpiece. Calle 13 might have been the first artists to make interesting reggaeton videos, but Juli has upped the ante here.
