Datapoint Palenquero/Domains of use: music
Historically, the language has always been used in the local lumbalu, a funeral (musical) tradition with strong African roots (Schwegler 1996).
Palenquero musicians have become famous, and they now routinely "exploit" the creole in their compositions. Interestingly, visitors (tourists) to Palenque and others who hear the creole in a musical context often think that it is "ancestral African text" (i.e. an African tongue) rather than a creole.
