Long before Latin music was playing around the clock in every corner of the globe, a couple of Cuban exiles struck the first blow in 1985 with the song Conga. It was a single that Emilio and Gloria Estefan pitched to Sony up to seven times — without any success. But luck was on their side. Conga became Gloria’s first global hit, followed by hundreds more. The 67-year-old artist, who has sold over 100 million records, released Raíces on Thursday — her first Spanish-language album in 18 years.
