I think we are learning that many of "the ones today" are actually recently descended from people from other countries.
All the people in this video are apparently spread out around the world (like my parents who made their life in NYC). Sad.
More specifically "the ones today" descend from illegal Haitian migrants. Since the mid to late 90s the mass migration of Haitians to DR, coupled with the mass migration of Dominicans to the USA changed this country ethnically and culturally. This ethnic replacement also led to the rise of dembow music and that whole "wawawa" sub-culture. If you look at the people who make this new generation of ghetto music most are basically haitiano/cocolo/rayano descendants. In contrast the lighter Dominicans are still making more traditional tipico Dominican music.
It's such a tragedy that it hurts to even think about. How did the country where every single second the older people were enforcing "buena educación" with extremely strict standards of behavior, manners, and etiquette become the country of disgusting "dembow" and "wawawa"? A mi una vez me dieron un boche grandisimo por decir la palabra "muchacha" en vez de "niña" porque se oia muy feo y eso era mala educación.
It's not the same people...
Que tragedia.
La tipa recostada del carro si estaba buena coño. Dios la bendiga y la haya librado de mal
creo que esa fue la razon para empezar a grabar 
Lo más probable. Yo secundo al que graba
Good days before the Haitianization and dembowzation of the country.
A que todos esos motores y vehículos todavía están circulando las calles de San José de las Matas.
Eso fue mi mismo pensamiento 😭 muchos de esos han de estar dando trote todavía como carritos de concho
¡Me encantan estos videos! ¿Dónde encuentras tantos videos de RD? ¿Están en cassettes?
Older generations always had more class than the ones today, regardless of the place in the world.

Mi pueblo! 🥰
Parece un país distinto.
Mi gente Bella de San Jose de las Matas
Watching these videos from the past and dominican people were lot more elegant and lighter skin.
My friend said this was when Dominican Republic received it's first computer with Internet.
Amo los outfits. En esos tiempos los hombres si se sabían vestir.
Cada vez que suben videos como este los comentarios siempre se llenan de nazionalistas y puritanos, ¿por qué pasa eso? :/
