"Rompe" (Break it in English) is a popular Reggaeton song by Daddy Yankee. The song held the #1 spot of Billboard Magazine's Hot Latin Tracks chart for over three months and reached a peak position of #24 on the 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).
A remix has been released that features G-Unit members Lloyd Banks and Young Buck, and also Nelly Furtado but Furtado's verse was removed from the video because Furtado could not appear to the videoshoot. It's also featured in the Activision video game, True Crime: New York City. It is used as the walk-up music of Detroit Tigers shortstop Edgar Rentería, Chicago Cubs left fielder Alfonso Soriano, Washington Nationals shortstop Felipe Lopez, San Francisco Giants catcher Bengie Molina, New York Mets first baseman Carlos Delgado, New York Mets shortstop Jose Reyes, and Mets second baseman Luis Castillo. The Turkish rip-off, Komple, by Burak Kut has become a hit in Turkey.
The song was produced by Monserrate & DJ Urba and Fish.
The song has been featured on HBO's Entourage & The Sopranos, as well as CBS's CSI: NY.
