Despite being primarily a reggaeton and trap artist, Ozuna cites bachata singer Romeo Santos (pictured) as his favorite singer.
Reggaeton, also known as reggaetón or reguetón, is a modern style of popular and electronic music that originated in Panamá during the late 1980s, and which rose to prominence in the late 1990s and early 2000s through a plethora of Puerto Rican musicians. It has been popularized and dominated by artists from Puerto Rico since the early 1990s.
Cassettes were made in carports (marquesinas) and then sold on the street, out of the trunk of a car.
