Best Answer

She was a Latin singer, for she is Mexican-American through her father's side of the family and became the first female performer to be successful in the Mexican-American music genre Tejano, for it was a male-only music career until Selena. She was just beginning her dream of becoming a singer in the English language market until her untimely death on March 31, 1995 (16 days before her 24th birthday) at the hands of Yolanda Saldivar, who was the fan club president and thought to be a loyal friend, until she started stealing money from the fan club

Since she's Mexican-American, she sang Spanish songs, more specifically Tejano music, which is various forms of folk and popular music that is only played throughout the Mexican-American populations of Central and Southern Texas
