Check your billboard charts. It's currently #3 and has been on the charts for 16 weeks. Only "Gold Digger" has been in the Hot 100 longer (amongst the Top 10 songs)

Oh, I thought we were talking about our peers! If it???s about charts and that kind of thing, I could go on and on ??? I think most of us could.
i really just want to know who likes reggaeton here. i know some dj's spin it. But maybe its just the fact i was saturated by it in Peru but its hard to comprehend enjoy this music other than very basic club reaction use. Same drum pattern..ahhh!!!!
Hearing dj's mix this badly in peru was hilarious though so many, screaming drum hit crescendos before the classic pattern returns on cue.
Ignorant hatters of hiphop refer to mainstream hiphop as "its always the same beat" but with reggaeton i might agree. Daddy Yankee to collaborate with Willie Colon
i will go local, i can't see the appeal in any of the big toronto/ canadian buzz bands = DFA79, Metric, Stars, Dears, New Pornographers, arcade fire and especially Broken Social Scence.

Yeah I don't get the whole Reggaeton thing. Same drum pattern, same jibberish vocals. I mean it's cool in the club I guess when you have hot exotic women shaking that ass in front of you then you can drown it out. But when you get a guy pulling up next to you at a redlight with his windows down bumping that schitt then it's just wrong on every level.
well i wil ladmit to lumping her i nthat pile too.. but then i found myself actually digging a couple of her songs without realising it was her... so im on the fence... that video of her dancing with stinkin rich, woops buck 65 was retarded though.

Something else to think about is the gangsterism aspect. Hiphop was championed for degrading lyricks and violence. Reggaeton seems like a conentrated version of that. In peru i was volunteering with kids and they loved reggaeton on the radio. Culo.....Culo....Culo Thats just wrong.
Spanish hiphop (west style) sometimes had some thugness in it but succesful artists had a social message sometimes(deliquent habits and others) With the reggeaton revolution...all of this is... a fuera!
I fully agree and is why I called for some of the reggaeton dj's here to present some good aspects. The Captain Crates blog had a post about puerto rico records and early reggaeton (late 80's) and it was very similar to today.
This "genre" has poppedup in the eyes of most and is exclusive to MTV stuff in their view.(not as bad as dissing punk on the count of Good Charlotte) I wish someone could prove me wrong or defend reggaeton...
but on a straight up way: fak reggeaton, the VMA had Fat Joe presenting reggaeton music to the masses "the next thing, real latin hiphop" that 3 artist showcase was horrible...
Daddy Yankee being more popular than Orishas makes me wanna puke a lil.

I still contend this
is seriously
hating on an entire genre =
calling another language "jibberish" =
come on dudes.
