Critical reception

Matthew Wilkening from AOL Radio Blog said that the song "combines an infectious mid-tempo dance beat with Latin horns and percussion, as Daddy Yankee bids farewell — but seemingly refuses to give up a lover who is moving away from him, despite his friends' best advice".[1] It received and award for "Urban Song of the Year" at the 2012 ASCAP Awards, which are awarded annually by the American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers in the United States.[2]

Music video

The music video for the song was released on August 23, 2010. It was directed by George Rivera and Juan Esteban Suárez.[3] It shows the artist's mother-in-law going to the hospital for brain cancer, and shows the artist's wife shaving her head as a sympathy gesture.
