In 2006, the duo became the first act to place four singles in the top 10 of Billboard's Hot Latin Songs chart. The new album's first single, "Sexy Movimiento," is gaining traction beyond reggaeton stations and is expected to reach the top five of Hot Latin Songs by release week. "I sing reggaeton, that's what I do," Wisin said. "But we do fuse many rhythms, and we have evolved enormously in the past two years."

The Wisin & Yadel Zune 30 comes preloaded with exclusive content - videos, photos and tracks - and costs $199.94 . You can preorder it already from Walmart.

There is something interesting in this video. You can better see it at the beginning of the "Sexy Movimiento" Video Clip, where a girl holds a Zune 30 with her left hand and watches a video on it. This is possible only if that Video is upside down, because Zune is designed to display videos with the control-pad on the right. Another explanation could be this is a limited edition for left-handed people but I don't think this is case: [via ZuneRama forum, thanks Adam]
