Danza Kuduro" has received on VEVO is significantly more than any other Latin music video has received and the pace at which
Don Omar reached 100 million views is beyond what any of the Puerto Rican artist's colleagues can compare to. This has been fueled by "
Danza Kuduro" becoming an international mega-hit reaching the No 1 position on the Billboard Hot Latin Songs Chart in the US for 16 weeks as well as dominating radio charts in Argentina, Chile, Central America and Spain.
"I thank God and my fans for permitting me and helping me to make history with my music. This achievement also belongs to
Lucenzo and his great song and to all of those people around the world that enjoyed it. I have a commitment to the music industry which is to continue to elevate my genre to glorious and unforgettable moments. It's time to focus and work hard. Thanks to everyone," commented Don Omar.
