Honestly, if this guy were American (and not from Puerto Rico; what a difference a few hundred miles makes) and this was in English I think this could have been a major hit
I’ll give you the benefit of the doubt about the America PR comment. We cared more for Haiti under Obama than we do for PR under Trump. Maybe by next hurricane season we’ll get the water and power back on for the AMERICANS down there.

2nd: “hit” according to whom? Did you check the numbers for this and Calle 13?

Well Puerto Rico is an independent commonwealth is it not? Maybe: I don't profess to be that knowledgeable about it, but people refer to Puerto Ricans where they don't refer to Virginians or Californians, leading me to believe they see Puerto Ricans as less than Americans? Maybe; I can certainly stand to be corrected about that.

As for charts, yes, LATIN albums they've done very well, but I'm talking about overall commercial appeal, not just one ethnic group or demographic. Hit in the sense that it's in the Billboard Top 100, not the Billboard Top Latin Albums chart.

Edit: just like you to take a compliment to the guy and turn it into a perceived slur. Happy Christmas!

Puerto Ricans are technically Americans but to Americans they're foreigners. It doesn't help that they're not white.

Plus their toilets haven’t flushed for months.
