Singer and DJ, Leonardo Renato Aulder, got together with friends, including El General, to pioneer a movement in the 1980s which they called 鈥渞eggae in Spanish鈥�.

It later became known as reggaeton.

Many people think this globally popular music 鈥� with its legendary stars like Bad Bunny, Ivy Queen and Daddy Yankee - started in Puerto Rico, but they鈥檙e wrong.

Renato, as he鈥檚 known, took dancehall music from Jamaica and adapted it to his Spanish speaking Panamanian audience to create a new style of music, which spread in clubs and on the buses.

He tells Jane Chambers how he did it.
