I cannot talk from all Latin America, but at least in my city gangs imported a lot of the pop culture from the American ghettos, everyone has a sibling, cousin or friend who emigrated to the US, when they come back to their cities either because they were deported, or because they simply wanted to come back, they dress differently, they like new things and they share their experiences. Also American movies, TV and music make a big influence not only in Latin America but the whole world.
