Jorge González

Today, for my blog i would like to write about, in my opinión, the gratest Chilean of all time. This is Jorge González. This chilean musician from san miguel, made a before and after in the chilean and latinoamerican music. He made a point about the social and political context in chile, not only by making a critic about the regime that was imposed, but also going agains the people who were fighting against the regim, letting people having a new visión of the situation. He also included new sounds to his music, making a vanguardist genre that is a referent for actuall. He never was intimidated by anithing so people took him as a falg of fight, letting them to have a voice and rasing against injustice and opression. He leaderd a band called "los prisioneros" composed by him, narea and tapia. One aspect that made the difference between every other band is that they were por guys, from the suburbs of Santiago that maneged to have the attention of the entire country and even the ones that had the power at the time. Their were showing the anger and discoumfort of people by doing a peacefull fight, singing. Eventhow they were singing about political topics, they had to be very carefull because of the political persecution so the consept of the band was going further. They began to write about problems that they had and injustices about society more than political lirycs. One of the impressive thing about this band and mostly about Jorge gonzález is that they still are lisened to and enjoyed by the younger generations.
