We Like It Like That tells the story of Latin boogaloo, a colorful (musical) expression of 1960s Latino soul, straight from the streets of New York City. From its origins to its recent resurgence, it’s the story of a sound that redefined a generation and was too funky to keep down. Through original interviews, music recordings, live performances, dancing and rare archival footage and images We Like It Like That explores this fascinating, though often overlooked, bridge in Latin music history, seeking to understand its context in the story of Latinos in America and its continued influence around the world today. / We Like It Like That cuenta la historia del boogaloo, una expresión musical de los años 60, directamente de las calles de la ciudad de Nueva York. Desde sus orígenes hasta su reciente resurgimiento, es la historia de un sonido que redefinió una generación y que era demasiado funky para detenerse. A través de entrevistas, música, conciertos en vivo, bailes e imágenes, We Like It Like That explora esta conexión muchas veces olvidada de la historia de la música latina, y trate de entender su contexto en la historia de los latinos en América y su influencia continua en el mundo.
