2007 National Puerto Rican Day Parade in New York -
Schedule of National & NY Events
Daddy Yankee To Appear on MTV Tr3́s Puerto Rican Day
Parade Float
Reggaeton icon Daddy Yankee is sure to get people moving
as he rides this year’s National Puerto Rican Day Parade
in style as the exclusive artist aboard the MTV Tr3́s
float on June 10th in New York City. “My music
represents a lot dancing, I’m from the Caribbean, I’m
from Puerto Rico, zone of the rhythm, nosotros llevamos
la musica por nuestras venas,” says Daddy Yankee about
his Puerto Rican roots.
The Puerto Rican Day parade is attended by more than two
million people who line New York’s Fifth Avenue, making
it one of the largest outdoor events in the United
States.
MTV Tr3́s viewers will have a front row seat to the
parade in a special “Mi TRL” that highlights VJ Carlos
Santos’ first-ever Puerto Rican Day Parade experience on
June 14th at 4:30 PM Eastern. And “Sucker Free Latino”
broadcasts a special Puerto Rican Day Parade edition
featuring Daddy Yankee and other artists participating
in the parade on June 18th at 4:30 PM Eastern.
MTV Tr3́s is currently giving Daddy Yankee fans
exclusive access to the artist and his music in Artist
of the Month programming that includes:
“Hachetetepe,” an original MTV Tr3́s production that
features Daddy Yankee in an intimate, first-hand
narrative style with an interactive twist: viewers will
see what a day in the life of Daddy Yankee is like, and
then go to mtvtr3s.com and read Yankee’s first hand
perspective in a special blog created specifically to
talk about the events that transpired on the show. In
their blog, viewers will have access to exclusive
footage and photos, that didn’t make it on the show.
They can start their own conversations with each other
about what they just learned about Yankee, thereby
deepening their viewing experience. “Hachetetepe,”
premieres on Sunday, May 20th at 2 PM Eastern.
“Sucker Free Latino Memorial Day Marathon: Hosted by
Daddy Yankee” is a six hour dose of the newest urban
hits all wrapped up with everything MTV Tr3́s viewers
ever wanted to know about Daddy Yankee. Premieres
Monday, May 28, 12 PM – 6 PM.
