During an online survey conducted in 12 Latin American countries at the beginning of 2021, over one-third of respondents in most markets included Latin music among their favorite music genres. The exception was Brazil – the only Portuguese-speaking country in the region – where Latin music was the least popular of the five genres listed. In Mexico, pop music ranked first, mentioned by almost four out of ten responding internet users. In 2020, Brazil and Mexico altogether accounted for two-thirds of the music industry revenue in Latin America.
