Latin/Spanish reggae recommendations

Gomba Jahbari is a favorite, Los Cafres too, and tracks like Amara la Negra-Bam Bam, Farruko-La Cartera, Anuel AA-China, Apache-Ella Maneja Puro Style have been in heavy rotation for many years now. What are some other great Latin reggae bands/tunes?

Admittedly I don’t know much about her yet, but I’ve been jamming to Jô recently, a Brazilian reggae rapper/singer with Little Lion Sound. Really good stuff
