Good Article nomination

The majority of the article seems good...but i think the discography needs to be changed and put into a seperate articles like many other musicians articles.Duder999 16:25, 5 Feb 2008

Please check one of my edits

The original version of this article had the following sentence -

  "He was subsequently instructed by other artists in the genre including DJ Playero, DJ Nelso and DJ Goldy in order to develop an original style."

The article then goes on to say that this led the artist to become one of the first to perform reggaeton. I'm not 100% sure what the quoted sentence means since I am not familiar with this performer or the genre. In my last edit I changed it to state that he "emulated" the other artists, "trying" develop an original style. Is this correct? I don't want to inadvertently change the sense of the original.

I don't think the significance changes much, he was instructed by then so technically the new sentence is correct. - Caribbean~H.Q. 14:51, 16 January 2008 (UTC)

Name

What source indicates his name as being Ramón instead of just Raymond? I had always thought it was just Raymond. Just asking before editing. ~RayLast 19:52, 14 February 2008 (UTC)

• Ref 2 isn't in English, right? Say that
• "He went on to emulate other artists in the genre, including DJ Playero, DJ Nelson, and DJ Goldy, trying to develop an original style." - he tried to develop his own style by copying others...? Maybe I'm missing something
