Here is a description of what salsa music is:
Salsa music is a diverse and predominantly Cuban Caribbean genre that is popular acros s Latin America and among Latinos abroad that was brought to international fame by Cuban and Puerto Rican musicians. Salsa incorporates multiple styles and variations; the term has and can be used to describe most any form of popular Cuban-derived genre, such as chachachá and Son. Most specifically, however, salsa refers to a particular style developed in the 1960s and ’70s by Puerto Rican and Cuban immigrants to the New York City area, and its later stylistic descendants including 1980s salsa romantica and other sub-genres. The style is now practiced throughout Latin America, and abroad. Salsa’s closest relatives are Cuban son and mambo, typified by orchestras of the early 20th century, as well as Latin jazz. The terms Latin jazz and salsa are sometimes used interchangeably; many musicians are considered a part of either (like Tito Puente, Eddie Palmieri, Ray Barretto among others), or both, fields, especially performers from prior to the 1970s.
Salsa is essentially Cuban in stylistic origin.though it also has styles mixed with pop, jazz, rock, and R&B. Salsa is the primary music played at Latin dance clubs and is the « essential pulse of Latin music », according to Ed Morales,while music author Peter Manuel called it the « most popular dance (music) among Puerto Rican and Cuban communities, (and in) Central and South America », and « one of the most dynamic and significant pan-American musical phenomena of the 1970s and 1980s ». Modern salsa remains a dance-oriented genre and is closely associated with a style of salsa dancing.
