Data Insight

Prestige is the album where Daddy Yankee's legal name appears in full, Ramón Luis Ayala Rodríguez, on the opening composer credit, then shortened to Ayala across the rest. He wrote his own parts on every track, so his stage name leads the lyricist column, joined by the featured artists on the collaborations. The composer credits widen on the posse cut 'Llegamos a la Disco,' which lists the legal names of De La Ghetto, Ñengo Flow, Arcángel, Farruko, and the other guests alongside the production teams.

Prestige is the sixth studio album by Daddy Yankee, released in September 2012 on El Cartel Records and Capitol Latin. It blends his reggaeton base with pop and dance crossovers, led by the singles 'Lovumba,' 'Limbo,' and 'Ven Conmigo' with Prince Royce. Production came mainly from Los de la Nazza, with additional work from Rayito, MadMusick, and others. Daddy Yankee wrote the songs, credited by his full legal name Ramón Luis Ayala Rodríguez on the album, with guest writers on the many collaborations featuring J Alvarez, Natalia Jiménez, Farruko, De La Ghetto, Ñengo Flow, Arcángel, and Prince Royce. The album topped the US Top Latin Albums chart.
