Vallenatos are typically made with three instruments: the guacharaca, a wooden percussion instrument invented by the indigenous Tairona people, the caja, a drum that originated from African slave communities and the accordion, a European instrument. The earliest vallenatos were performed by traveling minstrels who moved from town to town singing songs of broken-hearted love and bringing news from other regions. The paseo has a varying speed and is the most versatile and common beat. The merengue and the puya are typically faster and are often used for dancing. Much like hip-hop, vallenato has a competitive component in which two singers challenge each other in a battle of wits. The battle, or piqueria , requires humor and excellent improvisational skills, as the dueling participants take turns singing rapidly over the backing accordions. The singer boasts about his accordion skills, says Morales can never beat him and even mocks him as uneducated and uncultured. His rendition of the song was a huge success across Latin America, but scandalized some purists because it fused elements of rock with traditional vallenato. The song followed a wave of resurgent interest in the genre. Perhaps the most famous of all the people vallenato has influenced was not a singer at all.

In , vallenato and cumbia were added as a category in the Latin Grammy Awards. This form of music originated from farmers who, keeping a tradition of Spanish minstrels juglares in Spanish , used to travel through the region with their cattle in search of pastures or to sell them in cattle fairs. Because they traveled from town to town and the region lacked rapid communications, these farmers served as bearers of news for families living in other towns or villages. Their only form of entertainment during these trips was singing and playing guitars or indigenous gaita flutes, known as kuisis in the Kogi language , and their form of transmitting their news was by singing their messages. The first form of vallenato was played with gaita flutes , guacharaca , and caja, and later adopted other instruments like guitars. These troubadors were later influenced by Europe's instruments: piano and accordion. Vallenato was considered music of the lower class and farmers, but gradually started penetrating through every social group during the midth century.
