Daddy Yankee’s ‘Gasolina’ first reggaeton hit to be inducted into National Recording Registry

Daddy Yankee’s 2004 mega-hit “Gasolina” is now officially a piece of American history. The song that catapulted Latin hip-hop into the mainstream this week became the first reggaeton song inducted into the Library of Congress’ National Recording Registry. It joins the likes of Queen’s “Bohemian Rhapsody,” President Franklin D. Roosevelt’s 1941 Christmas Eve radio broadcast and Wilt Chamberlain’s legendary 100 point game.
