The Latin Grammy Award for Best Tropical Song is an honor presented annually at the Latin Grammy Awards, a ceremony that recognizes excellence and creates a wider awareness of cultural diversity and contributions of Latin recording artists in the United States and internationally.[1] The award is reserved to the songwriters of a new song containing at least 51% of the lyrics in Spanish. Instrumental recordings or cover songs are not eligible. Songs in Portuguese may be entered in the Brazilian field.[2]
The award was first presented to Juan Luis Guerra for the song "El Niágara en Bicicleta" at the 1st Latin Grammy Awards held in 2000.[3] He is also the most awarded performer in this category, winning on every occasion he's been nominated, a total of five times. His song "La Llave de mi Corazón" also won the award for Song of the Year in 2007, becoming the first tropical song to do so.[4] Apart from Guerra other multiple winners include Sergio George and Jorge Villamizar, both with two wins.
Colombian songwriters have won this award a total of seven times, more than any other nationality. It has been won by songwriters from the Dominican Republic six times, the United States three times and Puerto Rico once.
