CONGRATS to both Luis Fonsi and Daddy Yankee because their video for ‘Despacito’ is now THE MOST-WATCHED-VIDEO on Youtube.

 

As of right now, with over 2,994,056,666, ‘Despacito’ holds the crown for most watched video, beating out Wiz Khalifa and Charlie Puth’s Fast and Furious hit, ‘See You Again’, which only has 2,993,712,651 views.  It was only a short run for ‘See You Again’ since the video recently dethroned PSY’s ‘Gangnam Style’, which was most-viewed for five years!

 

 

 

The video is directed by Carlos Perez and although the video first hit YouTube in January, it only took roughly eight months to become the most watched, all while ‘See You Again’ took more than two years to do so.

Daddy Yankee says, “Thank you YouTube for ‘Despacito”s success.  I recognize the influence that the platform has. The music industry has changed. The rules of music have changed. And YouTube has a big responsibility, and I recognize it. Breaking the record is overwhelming, and I’m happy to keep [inspiring] others to do the same.”
