"Rompe" (English: "Break It") is a song recorded by Latin reggaeton artist Daddy Yankee. The song held the number 1 spot of Billboard's Hot Latin Tracks chart for over three months and reached a peak position of number 24 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart of the same publication, showcasing an evident trend among Latin songs having great cross-over appeal among the mainstream American market (since Shakira's "La Tortura" entered the Top 20 on the same chart).
