Since then, he has sold around 30 million records, making him one of the best-selling Latin music artists. Daddy Yankee’s album Barrio Fino made history when it became the top-selling Latin Music Album of the Decade 2000–2009. In 2017, Daddy Yankee, in collaboration with Latin pop singer Luis Fonsi, released the hit single “Despacito.” It became the first Spanish-language song to hit number one on the Billboard Hot 100 since 1996. The single gained global success. The video for “Despacito” on YouTube became the most watched video on the platform and top-selling single of the decade 2010-2019.
