Use in dance performances

The uptempo music of Mercadonegro makes many of its songs a popular choice in salsa dancing performances and competitions. The song "La Malanga" from their 2005 album "Salsa Pa'l Mundo Entero" was the most popular song at the 2012 World Latin Dance Cup, leading to the song being banned from the 2013 competition. "La Bendición" is another popular song from the group, which has also been banned from the World Latin Dance Cup for 2014.^[1] The song was also used by John & Andrew in the quarterfinals of season 9 of America's Got Talent.
