Salvadoran hip hop (also known as "Guanaco", "Wanako", or "Guanako" rap/hip hop) is hip hop and rap music that comes from El Salvador. It is a relatively new style of music, when groups like Pescozada and Mecate formed in the late 1990s, which have grown to be acclaimed and famous throughout the world.[citation needed] Because of the poverty, growth, war, bloodshed, dictatorship, gangsterism that El Salvador has survived, the new generation of hip hoppers is said to have a different perspective of the world; they do not usually rap about stereotypical hip-hop topics (such as prostitutes, money, cars, drugs, and sex), but about youth's problems, and current politics.
