PULSE Music Publishing and songwriter Marty James were again recognized by BMI for their collective role in the megahit “Despacito” by Luis Fonsi and Daddy Yankee, remixed and featuring Justin Bieber. On top of its many accolades over the past 18 months (including several Grammy nominations and tying the record for the longest run at #1 on the Billboard Hot 100) the song recently was recognized for having been performed more than 1 Million times by performing rights organization BMI. “Despacito” was named BMI’s “Song of the Year” at the annual Latin awards in April 2017 and the song is one of only 11 songs in history to achieve more than 1 Billion streams on Spotify.
