Not to be confused with reggae, a Jamaican genre, reggaeton traces its origins to Panama in the ’80s and Puerto Rico in the ’90s. Although initially taken by surprise by these statistics, I took a closer analysis of the global rise of the “Latin” genre and its most powerhouse subgenera reggaeton, only to find out all the indicators leading to this stat had been there since 2017. Meanwhile my favorite J Balvin came in third only behind number two Drake and Bad Bunny. Surprisingly, however, Spotify “Wrapped” also declared Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio, better known for his stage name Bad Bunny, as the most streamed artist of the year globally. Unsurprisingly, Spotify “Wrapped” declared “Latin” as my top genre and Colombian artist J Balvin as my most streamed artist. Across social media, Spotify users shared their most beloved artists, songs and genres, as well as the occasional “top 0.5 percent of listeners” badge. Every December, music streaming service Spotify releases their annual “Wrapped” review, which examines the most popular music of the year for both individual users and the platform as a whole.
