Career
Career
In 2005, Speedy gained international fame with the remix of the single "Siéntelo", originally featured on the 2001 compilation Sandunguero by DJ Blass. The remix, featuring Lumidee, reached the top 10 in several European countries, including Belgium, Finland, France, Switzerland, and the Netherlands. Billboard referred to it as "the first international reggaetón hit". PopMatters praised his 2005 album Nueva Generación as “an excellent example of what intelligent and sophisticated but unpretentious pop music can do”. In the 2020s, Speedy experienced a resurgence in popularity, especially in Mexico, with a focus on blending Puerto Rican reggaetón with modern Mexican urbano music.
