“Daddy Yankee says rumors of reggaeton’s demise are entirely exaggerated.

The Puerto Rican superstar, whose song “Gasolina” is reggaeton’s biggest crossover hit, insists the music is surely evolving. But whatever happens, he adds, the ubiquitous blend of tropical rhythms, reggae, hip-hop and rap, is here to stay.

“It’s part of the landscape,” said the singer-producer known to his mom as Raymond Ayala. “It has been used in hip-hop, rap, all the top hit styles. People who don’t even know what they’re listening to love it. It can only get stronger. Those that say reggaeton is going away are just jealous.”"
