While not as widely recognized in the U.S., Daddy Yankee holds immense popularity within the Spanish-speaking music community, boasting millions of followers on Instagram. This revelation from the music sensation is nothing short of a major bombshell.
From Western Journal:
On Sunday night in Puerto Rico, music superstar Daddy Yankee showed what happens when Christianity takes “the whole of you.”
According to NBC News, the 46-year-old Spanish-speaking reggaeton performer — reggaeton blends music genres such as reggae, dance and rap — closed his final show by announcing live on stage that henceforth he will give his life to Jesus Christ.
“My people, this day for me is the most important day of my life. And I want to share it with you because living a life of success is not the same as living a life with purpose,” the singer said in Spanish, according to NBC News.
In the Spanish-speaking music world, this qualifies as a bombshell. For context, Daddy Yankee has 48.9 million followers on the popular social media platform Instagram.
The music superstar used that platform to post a clip of his live, heartfelt message to fans. That post already has more than 1.7 million likes as of Tuesday morning.
