He started his career after facing many obstacles when Héctor Delgado (from the duo Héctor y Tito) gave him an opportunity to be a backup singer. After that, he sang in a live concert with Héctor and Tito in 2003, which was released later as a CD and DVD, which included the songs that became instant hits, Baila Morena and Amor de Colegio.
In 2005, Don Omar released the reggaeton album "Da Hitman Presents Reggaeton Latino", which broke the record for "Highest First Week Sales for a Reggaeton Album" by selling over 31,000 units in its first week, resulting a debut of #61 in The Billboard 200. Wisin y Yandel held that record until "Reggaeton Latino" was released.
The first single released from Reggaeton Latino, "Dale Don Dale [Remix]" , which features rapper Fabolous, debuted at #1 on the crossover chart.
He is currently signed to VI Music through Universal Music Latino.
In early 2006, the Governor of Puerto Rico, Aníbal Acevedo Vilá publicly mentioned interest in having Don Omar participate in a program against School Desertion. However, the Secretary of Education has rejected Don Omar sponsoring it due to his lyrics. The local press has also mentioned that Omar himself did not finish High School.
Currently has his own record label "El Orfanato" (The Orphanage) and had a magnificent performance in the 2011 Latin Music Billboard Awards where he received the Award for Latin Rythm Airplay.

The song "Luna" by Don Omar is about a man who is deeply in love with a woman who has left him. The singer is asking the moon to tell her how he feels when he is not around her. He reveals that he is devastated and cannot stop thinking about her. He says that he spends sleepless nights thinking about her and that losing her would be equivalent to losing his life. He pleads with the moon to tell her that he never lied to her and that he never pretended to be someone he was not. He wants her to know that he forgave her for anything she may have done wrong and that he just wants her to come back to him. He cannot bear the thought of living without her, and he would rather die than to live without her. The song is a desperate plea for his lover’s return.
