Who are your favourite Spanish-speaking artists?

I quite like Rosalía, especially her newer music. I have heard people say she is guilty of cultural appropriation, but I’m unclear on the whole story there, and my Spanish is not good enough to understand all her lyrics (i.e. if the reactionary lyrics are obvious but I’m missing their meaning).

Ana Tijoux is good, too. Revolutionary-adjacent music, so far as I can work out. She is French-Chilean. Her parents had to flee Pinochet.

Any revolutionary artists I should try? Hip hop or rap especially. Immortal Technique is great but there’s generally too much English in his songs to use them to improve my Spanish.
