Aventura

I've recently discovered the music of "Aventura." Their official web site (available in English and Spanish) describes their musical style as...their nouveau sound fuses bachata (a guitar-based Dominican folkloric music sometimes called the “Dominican blues”) with R & B, hip hop and other American pop and urban styles.

I particularly like the series "Amor de Madre" (Parts I and II). The songs tell the story of a fatherless boy who runs with the wrong crowd and lands in jail, only to find himself face to face with his father, who suffered a similar fate.
