Musica Jibara is a traditional Puerto Rican music genre that originated in the rural areas of the island. It is characterized by the use of stringed instruments such as the guitar, cuatro, and the tiple, as well as percussion instruments like the guiro and maracas. The lyrics often focus on themes of love, nature, and daily life in the countryside. The genre gained popularity in the 20th century and has been embraced by Puerto Ricans both on the island and in the diaspora.
