All my respects to Disapora Negra. I have had the pleasure of attending a few live Afro-Peruvian shows because I'm lucky to know such a great group of people from that country in particular. I know the sense on this video is no of a competition, but of a tribute rather. However, I think I can humbly say that in Peru, the Disapora Negra is splendidly represented, God bless.
