Daddy Yankee

Daddy Yankee — Daddy Yankee has been one of the biggest stars of the Latin music industry for over 30 years. The singer began his career in the 1990s, and he rose to fame with his 2004 single ‘Gasolina.’ He’s often credited with popularizing the term and genre reggaeton, which later earned him the nickname ‘The King of Reggaeton.’

Throughout his career, he’s released six album, while he announced his seventh and final album ‘Legendaddy,’ while sharing his plan to retire from music. While he’s consistently worked on music, one of his biggest singles came in 2017 after years in the business, when he collaborated with Luis Fonsi on the crossover smash ‘Despacito.’ That song was remixed and made even more popular by Justin Bieber, but the ‘Peaches’ singer isn’t the only international popstar that Daddy Yankee has collaborated with. He’s performed songs with a wide array of artists, including the likes of Katy Perry, The Jonas Brothers, and Bad Bunny.
