Board 8 » The Mount Rushmore of: Hispanic Musicians (+ Film Anti-Heroes TIEBREAKER)
Rules

1. You may vote up to 4 entries that fit the prompt.
2. No alts.
3. No deleting or editing posts; though, editing posts shortly after you post is fine.
4. If you change your vote, clearly indicate that you are changing a previous vote. Same for adding or subtracting picks.
5. In general, if there are two picks that can be considered the same product (i.e. Sonic Adventure 2 and Sonic Adventure 2 Battle), I will combine them.
6. If a vote is vague, I will pick the first available choice that best matches the vote (i.e. "Mario" for Wii Games becomes Super Mario Galaxy).
7. I will post the parameters of each Rushmore topic. Other than that, feel free to vote however you like and based on any criteria that best fits the "Mount Rushmore" of that topic.
8. If a vote doesn't fit the topic, it will count as a blank vote.
9. You may nominate as much as you want and have an unlimited amount of seconds for established nominations.
10. Every Sunday, I'll post the schedule for next week. I will pick based on the number of nominations. Any ties will be determined by RNG.

A big split in votes, with our top vote-getter not even breaking 50%. Even when tallying, I had no idea who would get on. There sure are a lot of anti-heroes, eh?

It was close as first, but LSD took it midway and never looked back.

feel like this should just be Hispanic Musicians, or re-titled to be a Mount Rushmore of Latin Musicians
There are no pan-Asian supermarkets down in hell
Or I guess clarify that non-Hispanic Latins are excluded (Brazilians and Portuguese)

Or include them but don't call it Hispanic

Brazilians and Portuguese musicians can be included.

Bands are allowed.

Not sure how to phrase this category. Im not even 100% sure of the difference between Hispanic and Latin American.

A trailblazer, an artist who opened many doors for other acts, one of the biggest acts of all time (Latin or not), and an artist who notably sings most (all?) of his work in Spanish and still sells millions of records.

Hispanic refers to Spanish-speaking culture, Latin America refers to the countries in the Americas with roots on the Iberian Peninsula (Spain and Portugal). Brazil was a Portuguese colony and they do not speak Spanish, but they are still Latin.

Or a simpler way to think about it, Hispanic excludes Brazilians, Latin includes Brazilians.

Yes, but Latin excludes Spain. So it's not like it's that simple.
Only the exceptions can be exceptional.
