Below, I translated the lyrics of the song UNO QUITAO Y OTRO PUESTO by Daddy Yankee from Spanish to English.

Intro

Let's go hard, bunch of b*stards

I always go a thousand

Intro

Without letting up

This is

Chorus 1

One out, another in

Without being sleepy I put them to bed

Verse 1

Playing since Pablo's days when none of this existed

I was already in the underground putting all this sh*t up to date

Pablo left, Chapo rose, he also fell for a couple snitches

In short, only one capo is still alive

The Big Boss, the owner of the lab

I was the one that created the formula, you just added a couple accessories

Legendary repertoire, I can understand your hate

It's that, motherf*cker, I haven't let up since Tupac and Notorious

Since the nineties dishing out cream

I'm Jordan, I give you a three-peat, I retire, come back and win three more

Whoever mentions me, I doubt he sleeps

All who've dissed me are dead, bro, tell me who else

People say "Yankee, don't leave, you're a crack"

Picture me these days making a comeback

For me, they can all unite and it's still a throwback

Back to back, this is another hit without slowing down

Chorus 2

One out, another in

Without being sleepy I put them to bed

One out, another in

Without being sleepy I put them to bed

Verse 2

Straight up, fame already called me to the hall

But I don't stop, I feel I'm stepping on a new rung

I'm a soldier that keeps putting his heart into it

When I stand, I shoot no matter who they are

I'm the R, I'm the AK, I'm the bullets in the seats

I'm the swagger the magician has when he pulls it out

Watch where you climb, my brother, you're a rookie

How you gonna flex on the one who's run through every strain

Bridge

You can't, you can't with me

Before fronting on me reach my level

How much sh*t these people talk

Then they s*ck me off face to face

And it's that you can't, you can't with me

Before fronting on me reach my level

How much sh*t these people talk

Then they s*ck me off face to face, and this is

Chorus 3

One out, another in

Without being sleepy I put them to bed

One out, another in

Without being sleepy I put them to bed

Outro

Hey, this career has always been without letting up

Year after year with the clip full

One out and one in

You know who the musical killer is

We just had to remind you

Potato and ketchup

Potato and ketchup for all these birdbrains

The Boss

The Big Boss

I'll wait for you in the Hall of Fame

SONG MEANING

Get ready for a masterclass in confidence! In “UNO QUITAO Y OTRO PUESTO,” Puerto Rican icon Daddy Yankee steps into the ring to remind everyone why he is still El Jefe. With rapid–fire rhymes he compares the music industry to a high-stakes street showdown: every time one rival is “taken out,” another pops up, yet the Big Boss keeps knocking them all down. Through references to legendary rappers, infamous cartel leaders, and sports greats like Michael Jordan, Yankee paints himself as the last surviving “capo” who invented the formula others only accessorize. The chorus repeats like a victorious chant, underscoring his tireless work ethic—he puts haters to bed “sin tener sueño,” without even feeling sleepy.

Beneath the swagger is a message about endurance and legacy. Daddy Yankee has been “sounding off since the 90s,” unafraid of new challengers, and already hearing the Hall of Fame calling his name. The song invites listeners to own their lane with the same relentless drive: level up, silence the doubters, and keep the energy “sin bajarle”—never turning it down.
