"Rompe" (English: "Break It") is the title of a song recorded by Latin reggaeton artist Daddy Yankee. The song held the #1 spot of Billboard'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).

It was nominated for "Best Latin/Reggaetón Track" at the 22nd Annual International Dance Music Awards in 2007, which was ultimately won Shakira and Wyclef Jean with their number one single "Hips Don't Lie".[1][2]
