August: "Pepas", Farruko
It is inevitable not to raise your arms to the rhythm of this song. The Puerto Rican singer-songwriter and rapper Carlos Efrén Reyes Rosado, better known as Farruko, presented us in August the song “Pepas”. The theme has become popular in nightclubs and has more than 261 million views on YouTube. "Pepa y agua pa´la seca. To´ el mundo en pastilla´ en la discoteca" has become an anthem.

Only on YouTube has it reached the first place in musical trends, achieving 21 million views in the first days of its premiere. The Puerto Rican Rauw, without a doubt, has become one of the great exponents of reggaetón.
