"Gasolina" ("Gasoline") is a song on Puerto Rican rapper Daddy Yankee's 2004 album Barrio Fino (Nice 'Hood).[2] Glory sings the line『dame más gasolina』("give me more gas"), although she is not credited. The song was released as the album's lead single in October 2004 and became a hit in 2005, peaking inside the top 10 on some of the charts it entered. "Gasolina" was the first reggaeton song to be nominated for the Latin Grammy Award for Record of the Year.
In 2015, the song was ranked number nine on the "50 Greatest Latin Songs of All Time" list according to Billboard. In 2018, it was ranked number 38 on Rolling Stone's 50 Greatest Latin Pop Songs.[3] In 2017, it was included on Billboard's "12 Best Dancehall & Reggaeton Choruses of the 21st Century" at number eight.[4] In 2021, it was ranked number 50 on Rolling Stone's "500 Greatest Songs of All Time",[5] and a year later it was ranked at the first place on their 2022 "100 Greatest Reggaeton Songs of All Time" list.[6] In 2023, "Gasolina" was selected by the Library of Congress for preservation in the United States National Recording Registry as being "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant."[7][8]

Salvadoran singer Papa A.P. released a cover version of "Gasolina" in Europe in 2005. It caused some controversy for being released there prior to Daddy Yankee's version,[citation needed] which had been released the previous year in the United States. It was the first single from his second studio album, Assesina.
Papa A.P. said that he initially refused to release the single before Daddy Yankee but was convinced to do so by his producers.[62][unreliable source?] He said about his version: "I do not regret that choice because even if it's not my title, everyone has very well accepted my version, even in the hood of New York". He claims his producers "came to an arrangement" with Daddy Yankee's producers.[citation needed] One week after the recording, his producer proposed shooting a music video, which was eventually shot in Tunisia.[63]
His first European hit,[64] the song reached the top 10 in France, and also charted elsewhere around Europe.
