In 2020 there will be 41 primarily Spanish songs will make the top 100. Following Justin Bieber's bilingual remix to Despacito (2017) famous artists began to collaborate with reggaeton performers including Drake with Bad Bunny on MIA (2018) and Madonna with Maluma in Medellin (2019). By 2020 a few reggaeton artists were expressing displeasure at the genre's direction toward the mainstream, but a new generation of performers, including Rauw Alejandro was determined to ensure that reggaeton was evolving. The incorporation of elements from electronic dance music, as well as other styles was a common practice.
