Don Omar’s 2011 hit “Taboo” has achieved a significant milestone by surpassing one billion views on YouTube for its music video, which features footage from the movie “Fast Five.” This marks Don Omar’s second video to join the Billion Views Club on YouTube. Currently ranked at No. 87 on YouTube’s Global Top Artists, Don Omar’s success continues to grow.

The music video, directed by Marlon P and shot in Brazil, intertwines scenes from “Fast Five” with a storyline where Don Omar plays a waiter at a lavish event and reconnects with a childhood crush.
