Eddie Rodriguez Record Label Executive Talks Tito Puente,The King of Latin Music

Eddie Rodriguez a 40 + year Latin Music Industry professional sending greetings from Puerto Rico. My story is based on firsthand experience as a record label executive and the inequality that still exists today to sign, market and promote Black Latino artists in the US Spanish Market (except for some Reggaeton artists) by multi national recording companies Latin divisions (Universal Music Group, Sony Music and Warner Music).Ernesto Antonio "Tito" Puente, Jr. (April 20, 1923 – June 1, 2000) was an American musician, songwriter, record producer and bandleader. The son of Ernest and Felicia Puente, native Puerto Ricans living in New York City's Spanish Harlem, Puente is often credited as "The Musical Pope", "El Rey de los Timbales" (The King of the Timbales) and "The King of Latin Music". He is best known for dance-oriented mambo and Latin jazz compositions that endured over a 50-year career. He and his music appear in many films such as The Mambo Kings and Fernando Trueba's Calle 54. He guest-starred on several television shows, including Sesame Street and The Simpsons two-part episode "Who Shot Mr. Burns?". His most famous song is "Oye Como Va"   https://youtu.be/zZQh4IL7unMhttps://youtu.be/zZQh4IL7unM     https://youtu.be/X6NpFAsBc1g     https://youtu.be/eewrHI2dFfs   https://youtu.be/IXMvl1YlpMk https:   https://youtu.be/s9nFtytRJfo
