  1. I am not a reggaeton guy but when I hear so many musicians calling it a cheap and terrible genre I always think of how Tainy is the kind of producer that keeps things interesting and they should listen to him better. The guy is actually playing and creating with groove, feel and mood and that’s what make his tracks hypnotic. The guy knows his stuff like none else.

  2. Wild thing about Tainy is that by age 16 he was already co-producing Mas Flow 2, quite possibly the most iconic various artists' reggaeton album to come out in the early 2000s. That album defined the production sound of reggaeton for the next two decades. He was among the top top producers at the time, already getting credit. The fact that he produces all your favorite reggaeton albums today gives so much meaning to the Mas Flow 2 album and what it meant for reggaeton.
