As is the case with most other countries/territories in the Western Hemisphere, America did a lot of meddling. Many corrupt governors were either instated or propped up (many of which went against their own people). Tried not to find a super sensationalist summary and I think dude below does a pretty good job of laying out the facts. Really interesting stuff and gives a lot of context onto why Hurricane Maria was such a disaster (beyond the whole blowing everything away part).

I'm aware of Puerto Ricos political situation and know a few things about its current and past history. I was just wondering how your comment related to music artists because I'm not familiar with its music business and failed to see the connection.
