92 BPM - Reggaeton Drum Loop

Reggaeton is a musical genre derived from reggae and dancehall, as well as elements mainly from hip hop and Hispanic music. It is a very popular musical genre until today, which had its peak during the decades of 2000 and 2010.

It was influenced by reggae in Spanish from Panama and developed in Puerto Rico in 1990; It emerged as a result of the popularity of Jamaican reggae, along with American hip hop during the early days of that era.

Subsequently, reggaeton gradually departed from reggae, but continued to use the same instruments and musical rhythms but with different lyrics and melodies. This was due to the fact that in Puerto Rico reggae beats were used on rap bases but with different lyrics and compositions.7

Similar to salsa, which was a cultural expression of Hispanic youth in the early 1970s, reggaeton entered the United States in the 1990s and 2000s and has become a mode of expression for many Hispanic youth.

The term reggaeton is the form adapted to Spanish from the word reggaeton; this, in turn, comes from the word reggae and the suffix -ón. It was coined by Daddy Yankee and Dj Playero in Puerto Rico in 1992, where it is mentioned for the first time in the mixtape "Playero 36". "I want you to keep jumping and I want you to jump again because it is the phenomenal man who sings reggaeton" Daddy Yankee is heard saying on the mixtape.

Moreover, the term retrotón is popular today to refer to old reggaeton songs, especially from the 2000s and earlier.
