It clicked after 3-4 listenings for me. It's classic reggaeton. Not really worse than any Spotify top 50.

I don't get it either. Who's actually unironically replaying this shit. I thought it was just a meme at first but a meme song wouldnt get that popular

>>74273072
>except its in Spanish

That's exactly why. It's a novelty. Not to mention the shit load of Hispanics and Latino-Americans bumping this shit.

i think luis fonsi is an incredible artist, as is daddy yankee
but the song is just like any other song of the genre over here, we dont actually like it like americans do

>>74273308
>go outside more

Yes anon, i'm sure spending more time outside would help people know what's popular on youtube.

>>74275142
it would. go to any convenient store and you'll hear it playing in the background

>Liking reggaeton

Kys my dude

>>74275405
not everyone lives in spicville

>>74276387
....i never said i did
daddy yankee has made very popular classics in the past that today's reggaeton cannot dream of comparing to
luis fonsi never was a reggaeton artist until this song, he just did ballads and such
but i cant speak for everyone, all my friends and their mothers like modern reggaeton and call racist anyone who doesn't, i cant say shit

>>74273072
It's popular because latin america fucking loves it. It's honestly the most popular song of all time already there.

It's literally an experimental avant-garde masterpiece, the way the songwriter dislocated the beginning of the chorus to the beat, I mean that is WILD

It's a cross over hit. It has Justin Bieber for Americans to have someone to relate to, but is just exotic enough because of the Puerto Ricans

the song is fucking terribad

literally one of the worst top 40 hits of the past couple years

dumbass cringey spanish gimmick is the only reason anyone thinks they should enjoy it

>>74273104
Your post isn't funny nor smart and that one anon calls you underrated. How I fucking hate this board.

Apparently it's bigger than Gangnam Style, but I've never even heard it or seen it referenced much. Meanwhile you couldn't escape Gangnam Style, it was everywhere for a few months.

If you actually went outside you would hear it.

It's impossible to go to a club, house party or even a chill drink sesh with some girls without hearing this song at least twice.

>>74273072
Like Gangnam Style, some non native speaker found something catchy.

On Mexican dance clubs I found amárrame begins way more popular despacito.

i live in fucking estonia and even here it's everywhere i go 24/7

help

Nice fic.

Also, reggaeton was maybe one of the biggest mistakes in music's history.

it's better produced than that other reggaeton shit
it has a more modern, western sound to it

God save us

Cuz latinos are fucking monkeys... Including me

>>74273072
every generic catchy shit will become popular if you pay for it to be spammed everywhere

>>74273328
It's a fucking generic syncopated beat, 90% of pop songs use it now, like Shape of You and other bullcrap

>>74273132
same here, I've only seen it mentioned on the chan and I don't even know what it sounds like

Reminds me of the song were some kid gets grinded on by his sister then grinds on his mom and dog.

>>74273072
Seems to me you answered your own question, OP

I think I really don't go out enough cause I hadn't heard it once until last night when I finally listened to it on YT since I read it's apparently bigger than Gangam Style.
To answer your question OP, I'm guessing marketing? Bots? If you tell people that THIS is the hit of 2017, they're bound to believe it eventually and look the song up.

>>74280907
Didn't do that normie crap in 2012 either, but I still got swamped by Gangnam shit.

>>74273132
I have never heard it on the radio or heard anyone play it. Or maybe never noticed because it's so generic.

>>74273072
Every ten or twenty years we need a new Spanish-language novelty song to satiate our fleeting curiosity about immigrant culture. Feliz Navidad, Oye Como Va, Macarena, etc.

>>74273072
it's just mediocre Reggaeton. I fucking hate puerto ricans for creating this shit genre of spanish music. it's worst than norteno mexican shit

Look at that fucking eighthead
Fucker doesn't have dreams, he has movies

>>74273072
I'm Puerto Rican and this song is fucking horrible. It's worst that Luis Fonsi actually knows its a bad song.

Reminder that /mu/ loved Despacito before redditors came in and took a shit on it just because it's not muh eurocentrist dad rock.

>>74274905
emperor maximillian of mexico tried to retcon being french by claiming common kinship via the roman empire (hence the term "latin american")

>>74273072
1. Get a big booty bitch that preferably "speaks" spanish
2. Play Despacito
3. Enjoy

Or does /mu/ only go for skinny white twigs that never wash their vaginas

>>74273072
If you think every top 40 song sounds the same then you are tone-deaf. It's certainly not innovative but it's not entirely the same as everything else.

DES

I'd never heard it and then I looked it up on youtube because I kept seeing it here but I can't remember what it sounds like

>>74285343
however you want to rationalize banging fat chicks, be my guest

What do you expect? If it's shit, it sells.

I have no idea what this is. Never heard of it. Guessing by the replies ITT it's a youtube viral hit, I don't really watch popular videos on youtube or listen to pop radio stations so i'm sorta clueless about what's the recent trendy songs.

Because their marketing team paid for dozens of sponsored facebook meme videos of "THIS IS THE BEST COVER OF DESPACITO YET -- crying laugh emoji x2"

Sauce?

>>74286035
It's, no joke, the most upbeat summer pop song we've had all year. My guess is that the majority of pop artists in America are drama queens who think republicans in office = the end of the world, and their music reflects that. I mean, it's no move your feet, but to the normalfag, Luis sounds happy to be singing, and not trying to make some artistic political statement, or emulate drake's jive depression.

not going to listen to this just because it's so popular

>>74273072
It doesnt have rap segment
This alone is enough to be superior to top 40

>>74288309
>the british haven't been relevant this entire decade
