Reggaeton mega hit “Te Boté” with Puerto Rican artists Nio García, Casper Mágico, Darell, Bad Bunny, Nicky Jam and Ozuna — which landed on both the Billboard's Hot Latin Songs chart and the Hot 100 music charts in 2018 — won three awards, including hot Latin song of the year and streaming song of the year.

“One of the key factors is to make sure we do good music, but by doing that we also got a super remix,” said Casper Mágico. “But we never imagined that it would become such an important hit,” added Nio García.From left, Christopher Velez, Erick Brian Colon, Zabdiel de Jesus, Richard Camacho and Joel Pimentel, of CNCO, accept the award for Latin pop artist of the year, duo or group, at the Billboard Latin Music Awards at the Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas on April 25, 2019.

“If you feel comfortable with it, we should do it more. A lot of people are now doing songs in Spanish and in English now,” bandmate Joel Pimentel, who grew up singing mainly in English, told NBC News. “We do encourage people to go out and do it [singing bilingual songs] because people will like it.”

Mexican trio Reik won Latin pop song of the year for their hit “Me Niego” with Ozuna and reggaeton giant Wisin, embracing a growing trend of blending urban music with pop.such as Anitta, Becky G, Karol G and Natti Natasha — all of whom landed nominations across the male-dominated genre.
