I don't understand this. I've only heard this song like once, but I hear people talking about how popular it is all the time.
What is this phenomenon?
>>
I'm Hispanic our music is not all like this!
>>
>>74467050
It's the most viewed video on YouTube and it is number 1 in the charts in almost every country.

>>74467555
viewbots, evidently. There's no way it could get so many views without a meme surrounding it (like Gangnam Style)
>>
It's made by a guy named Daddy Yankee in Puerto Rico. The guy has U.S. military insignia on his cap. Despacito is cointelpro

I can explain why it's popular.
Spanish summer hits are evergreen in most european countries. You always see people like Enrique Iglesias, Nicky Jam, Alvaro Soler on top of every summer chart. We call these singers "mosquitos": they are annoying, everybody hates them but they are fucking everywhere, and only appear during summer. You never hear of them during the rest of the year.
The sole fact that this is a mosquito song released in January made a lot of people talk about it, make memes and just criticize it ("lol don't they know it's not time yet"), but that only contributed to its popularity. The usual mosquito listeners, aka kids and prebuscent girls who have a crush on the singer, contributed to the early omnipresence of the song in radio stations.

When the song's popularity was fading out, Bieber made a cover of it, and that made his american fanbase notice it. The original song got a huge boost in views from that day, making the mosquito land in the States. European radio stations kept transmitting the song because "hey, Bieber made a cover, it's popular in america now, and summer is near, so here's Despacito" basically resuscitating the mosquito to make it live for the summer. Now it keeps going on because "hey hey, don't you wanna listen to the most popular song ever?"

Also, according to spanish producer Nahum Garcìa, the reason for why Despacito beated the other mosquitos of this year was because of the clever beat stop when he says "De, spa, cito". It gets stuck in people's mind, and make it stand out from Enrique Iglesias's dischography of identical mosquito songs.

TL;DR
It wasn't viewbots, just a really smart strategy to make the song reach an audience that isn't generally interested in it.

>>74467050
Latinos are the majority

>The Beiber parts are.
nigga the most popular song on earth is full spanish, the bieber version isn't so popular
>>
>Puerto Rico

>>74466997
>most popular song in human history
um, no, it should probably be some mozart beethiven shit
>>
>>74466997
Go back to fucking your 12 year-old sister Carlos
>>
>>74468473
Ironically enough Despacito isn't that popular here in Puerto Rico.
>>
>>74466997
what is this shit i've never heard of this song, why does it have 3 billion views.
>>
>>74466997
>the most popular song in human history

gangam style tops its views plent of shit does desu. maybe the most popular song this month but thats about all.
>>
>>74468446
The Beiber version is what got it into the USA, sparking world popularity. Then people tried to pretend like they wanted the "authentic" version. I'm sorry you'll always be a consolation for the Beibs.
>>
>>74468825
na, it's actually the most viewed video on youtube of all time
>>
>>74468825
It's literally the most viewed YouTube video

Spanish is a white language, brown faggots.

>>74468923

You're a white language, buddy.

>>74467671
oh boy
when america loves you that is not a good thing
>>
>>74468600
Nah, it'd probably be something by Elvis or some artist who was popular in the Middle East or Southeast Asia...it can't possibly be anything from hundreds of years ago because the population was so much smaller it's not even comparable
>>
>>74469096
Nope. Elvis didn't get 3 billion views on YouTube.
>>
>>74466997
>most viewbotted song in history
wew
>>
>>74470549
Youtube has 0% indication of popularity, those numbers are completely meaningless in the larger context, not just because they can be faked, but one person can be responsible for an absurd amount of views on their own
>>
The song is so fucking overplayed by this point. The appeal of the song wears off so quick, what a boring shitty song.
>>
>>74470841
>Youtube has 0% indication of popularity

You're genuinely delusional
>>
>>74471025
At face value that numbers means nothing so in a question of popularity is meaningless

Since the amount of views a video has is not actually the number of views it has, it's just a number
>>
>>74468446
>yfw spics were only noticed because of the based bieb man
>>
Spanish is the 2nd most spoken language in the world. So it's not odd at all. And no, English is not the 1st.
>>
>>74471506
English is the second most spoken language you dumb cunt, Spanish is the language with the second most native speakers, very few people (in proportion) speak it as a second language
>>
I just don't get it. It even has the generic copy paste Mexican drum beat.
