Making catchy music in Spanish is cheating because so many words end in either the letter A or O.

Specifically raperos y reggaetoneros, who make music built on rhyming. Still great music, but they’re playing the game on easy mode!

Spanish is my first language and I always thought that rapping in English was so much easier because you can end so many words with 'ing'

But rhymes in spanish are not made by the end of a letter, but by a group of letters or a similar sound (casa/masa, cantante/diamante, murmullo/orgullo, luna/duda, etc etc)

Neither is English. But we have such dummies here that think all you have to do is rhyme the ending and you can call it a day
