Cinq Music has announced the first-ever vinyl editions of six groundbreaking albums by Reggaeton superstar Daddy Yankee. This release is part of the 20th-anniversary celebration of his iconic album Barrio Fino and the hit single "Gasolina," which played a pivotal role in popularizing Reggaeton globally.
Celebrating 20 Years of Barrio Fino
The 20th-anniversary celebration of Barrio Fino includes the release of a special Bhangra remix of "Gasolina" by acclaimed rapper, singer-songwriter, and producer Tesher on July 26. "Gasolina," the lead single from Daddy Yankee's third studio album Barrio Fino, won a Latin Grammy for Best Urban Music Album in 2005. It was also the first Reggaeton album to debut at No. 1 on the Billboard Top Latin Albums chart, and "Gasolina" was the first Reggaeton song to be nominated for a Latin Grammy for Record of the Year.
Vinyl Releases and Pre-Order Details
Pre-orders for the first vinyl drop will begin on August 16, featuring three albums: Barrio Fino, El Cangri.com, and Los Homerun-es. A second series, slated for release on November 15, will include El Cartel: The Big Boss, Talento de Barrio, and Mundial. These vinyl drops will combine digital and in-person events to celebrate Daddy Yankee's influential career and engage fans worldwide. Exclusive vinyl variants will also be introduced over time, enhancing their appeal to collectors.
Industry Reactions and Collaborations
"Daddy Yankee is a music pioneer who brought an underground genre to the masses," said Barry Daffurn, Cinq Music President and Co-founder. "His success and the continued growth of the Reggaeton movement show that music truly is an international language. His global influence continues today, and we’re excited to be working with Tesher on his new remix, which marks the beginning of Cinq Music’s expansion into the fast-growing Bhangra music genre."
