I haven't cracked this one yet — but the brilliant team at Times for the Times have:

RA around EGG [urge] + reversal of NOTE [record]. My first vaguely heard of. Not the same as reggae. It originated in Panama and Puerto Rica in the 80’s/90’s (rather than Jamaica in the 60’s). Shakira’s “Hips Don’t Lie” is a well known example, whilst Bad Bunny is one of its greatest exponents.
