Garifuna music was originally specific to the geographic area surrounding coastal Belize and Honduras in Central America; the Garifuna people are descendants of slaves who settled on islands off the coast after a shipwreck in the 17th century. Isolated, they developed their own music called Punta. Punta spread, as they and their language did, throughout the region. Now, the Garifuna have migrated so far that some of the best places to hear their music is in the clubs of New York City and Los Angeles.
Get a 10-song Spotify playlist here and a history of Garifuna music on World Cafe.
