These are descendants of Yoruba Slaves in South America. I am sure they practise Santeria which is a hybrid of Yoruba religion and Catholicism, thus the mixture of Yoruba and spannish language. Eleggua which is word that ends Canto A Eleggua is the Santeria way of calling Esu. You can also hear Esu odara, Moyuba Orisha(Mojuba Orisha Alaroye) and Ache(Ase) in their melodies. There are several communities present in South America today that still speaks the Yoruba language. -Remi Ogunsanya
