Today, Latin Urban music is being defined by an eclectic fusion that has welcome everything from Hip-Hop, Dance, and Electronica to Reggaeton and Merengue. Daddy Yankee's contribution to that process has been significant. With its vibrant beat, mostly defined by dance music and merengue, "Lovumba" is a good example of the kind of sound that defines Latin urban music today.

Just like the previous track on this list, "Ven Conmigo" features a little bit of dance, electronica, and merengue, a mixed sound similar to the stuff produced by groups like Proyecto Uno and Ilegales back in the 1990s.
