- Oxford English dictionaries website, Sept. 19, 2018(reggaeton: A form of dance music of Puerto Rican origin, characterized by a fusion of Latin rhythms, dancehall, and hip-hop or rap)
- Grove music online, Sept. 19, 2018(Reggaeton: Although some dispute the national character of the genre, reggaeton is most frequently represented as a Puerto Rican and, increasingly, pan-Latino fusion of hip-hop and dancehall reggae. Featuring lyrics in Spanish and propelled by a modified reggae rhythm referred to as the "dembow," the genre also travels in the form of a suggestive, sexualized dance called "perreo")
- 2010041681: Baker, G. Buena Vista in the club, 2011:t.p. (reggaetón) p. 14 (a Spanish-language hybrid of dancehall reggae and U.S. rap, with roots in Panama and Jamaica but produced primarily in Puerto Rico) p. 8 (By reggaeton we refer to a relatively new genre strongly marked both by a particular approach to musical style (e.g., dancehall's boom-ch-boom-chick as reshaped by urban Puerto Rican sensibilities and informed by a fusion with hip-hop) and a relation to the market (i.e., explicitly commercial, courting a wide audience))
- 2008048053: Reggaeton, 2009:p. x (reggaetón is in Spanish) p. xi (reguetón) p. 1 (Draws on reggae, hip-hop, and a number of Spanish Caribbean styles; often accompanied by sexually explicit lyrics and a provocative dancing style known as perreo (doggy style); emerged from Puerto Rico in the late 1990s) p. 3 (spelling of reggaeton takes a number of forms: reggaeton, reggaetón, reguetón, regeton; seems most appropriate to spell it without the accent) p. 5 (was born in a hip-hop environment, with a little bit of Jamaican dancehall and Puerto Rico's own tropical flavor and ritmo) p. 6 (hip-hop is most easily distinguished from reggaeton in its embrace of the downbeat and the backbeat, emphasizing duple divisions of the meter rather than the 3:2 cross-rhythms that mark reggaeton and other Caribbean genres) p. 7 (dancehall's prevailing rhythmic pattern from the late '80s and early '90s has served as reggaeton's backbone--the boom-ch-boom-chick that now resounds from cars and clubs worldwide; reggaeton is neither hip-hop nor dancehall nor Latin nor tropical in the traditional sense, yet it draws from all of these) p. 4 of cover (A hybrid of reggae and rap, reggaeton is a music with Spanish-language lyrics and Caribbean aesthetics)
