“Whenever Quinée Butler, “the dark-skinned princess,” talks about reggaetón, her voice rises with excitement. The 33-year-old single parent is chief executive officer of reggaetonline.net, a Web site based in Canada that promotes Latino music artists.

Butler, a University of Nebraska at Omaha student, maintains the popular site. She moved from Omaha to Puerto Rico - the hub of reggaetón - earlier this year to get closer to the artists, although she still takes classes through UNO.”
