“Reggaeton icon Daddy Yankee is sure to get people moving as he rides this year’s National Puerto Rican Day Parade in style as the exclusive artist aboard the MTV Tr3s float on June 10th in New York City. “My music represents a lot of dancing, I’m from the Caribbean, I’m from Puerto Rico, zone of the rhythm, nosotros llevamos la musica por nuestras venas,” says Daddy Yankee about his Puerto Rican roots.

The Puerto Rican Day parade is attended by more than two million people who line New York’s Fifth Avenue, making it one of the largest outdoor events in the United States.
