Errors and Corrections: Reggaeton

Twenty months ago I said:
It turns out reggaeton is in 3/4 time, and that's why it's hard to make with iDrum (it only makes beats in 4/4.) After a while I figured it out, I made like three songs... I need to work on the lyrics... but they will probably sound like our first song:
Today I learned that I was incorrect.
The kick drum emphasizes a 4/4 beat, while the snare comes on the "and" of the 2nd 16th note and right on the 4th 16th.
Sorry, Daddy Yankee. Sorry, Calle 13. Sorry, Puerto Rico. Sorry, Reggaeton.
