The Latin Grammy Award for Best Reggaeton Performance is an honor presented annually by the Latin Academy of Recording Arts & Sciences at the Latin Grammy Awards, a ceremony that recognizes excellence and promotes a wider awareness of cultural diversity and contributions of Latin recording artists in the United States and internationally.[1]
According to the category description guide for the 2020 Latin Grammy Awards, the award is for "commercially released singles or tracks (vocal or instrumental) of recordings that contain 51% or more playing time of newly recorded (previously unreleased) material, and 51% playing time of Reggaeton music (as defined by the Urban Committee). It may include a fusion mix of urban styles with other genres as long as “Reggaeton” predominates as the main music character. For solo artists, duos or groups".[2]
The category was first awarded at the 21st Annual Latin Grammy Awards in 2020, with Bad Bunny behind the inaugural winner for his song "Yo Perreo Sola".
