“Muevelo” by Daddy Yankee and Nicky Jam

We love Daddy Yankee, so of course, we had to throw his new track on here. Now this song is a little more old-school reggaeton-sounding like when Los Cangris first broke out in Puerto Rico. Side note: Nicky Jam and Daddy Yankee were known as “Los Cangris” back in the day. This song features fragments of the 1994 song “Here Comes the Hot Stepper” by Ini Kamoze so it’s got a 90’s vibe to it. We’re really digging the throwback feel.

“Me Gusta” by Anuel AA and Shakira

YASSS! Anuel and Shakira. What could be better? You may recognize the beginning from “Sweat” by Inner Circle, a song released by a Jamaican reggae group in 1992, but Anuel and Shakira have added a reggaeton twist to it. These two have released so many bangers, but this song is everything.
