Encyclopedia > Romantikeo

|Romantikeo is a sub-genre of Reggaeton. It is a fusion of Bolero, Pop, R&B, Hip Hop and Reggaeton. The name Romantikeo comes from the words "romantic" and "mixeo" (Puertorican slang for mix). Romantikeo resembles R&B more than anything else. Romantikeo was rarely used until late the late 90's, when then newcomers Magnate y Valentino brought it to a much wider audience. Some of their early Romantikeo songs include "Punto y Coma", "Si Tu No Estas" and "La Soledad". Magnate also made some Romantikeo songs solo, such as "Vuelve a Mi", "Te Encontre", and fan favorite "Mujer Traicionada". Zion y Lennox are considered to be the pioneers of Romantikeo though, because many of their most known songs are Romantikeo. Today, more and more reggaetoneros slowly adapting to it. Though many sing Romantikeo, Zion y Lennox, Magnate y Valentino, Tito El Bambino, De La Ghetto, Randy, Don Omar, Divino, Naldo and Baby Rasta are among those who have made a name in the genre. Rakim & Ken-Y are considered to be the kings of this genre.
