Joe Bataan, born Peter Nitollano in Spanish Harlem, pioneered New York Latin soul, blending R&B, Latin, and Afro-Cuban sounds. Known for hits like "Gypsy Woman" and "Rap-O, Clap-O," his album *Salsoul* influenced urban dance. Raised in a multicultural environment, he infused gritty realism into his music. Notable works include *Saint Latin's Day Massacre* and *Afrofilipino*. Despite mainstream stardom eluding him, his legacy as a key figure in Latin soul endures.
