Los Rakas are of Panamanian heritage, currently residing in Oakland; you can see the flag of the former and the streets of the latter throughout.
While the video is a tad silly in its mannerisms, it's in that same awkward, overly enthusiastic teenaged manner, before everything gets so complicated.
The underlying track, by contrast, is quite complicated, with the best use of flute before Invincible and a beat that splits the difference between reggaeton and hip hop. Which is what happens when you are of Panamanian heritage currently residing in Oakland.
Be proud of where you're from. Wherever that is.
