Violencia machista, reggaetón y empoderamiento femenino. Análisis de la producción audiovisual en los casos de Karol G, Ivy Queen y Tokischa

Abstract

Have you ever wondered if, by dancing, singing, or listening to reggaetón performed by women, you might be reproducing messages that contain male violence or, on the contrary, if by enjoying this music style, you might be embracing a path toward empowerment? Reggaetón is a music genre that has been in the eye of the storm since its creation, due to its lyrics and sexually explicit content, which often replicate patriarchal patterns and preconceived ideas about women, their bodies, and their sexuality. This investigation aims to identify messages that promote female empowerment in the songs of artists like Karol G, Ivy Queen, and Tokischa. At the same time, it seeks to explore how their discographies also contain elements aligned with violence and systems of male, ethnic, and class domination.
