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.

Don Omar Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Podría olvidarme de todo el deseo que siento por ti
Me refugié en otros labios
Hoy me engaño porque más yo te recuerdo
Cuando busco en otra de ti todo eso que me gustaba
Te confieso que te extraño
Por eso amor
Y no me sueltes, no te vayas de mi lado
Por eso amor (¡ouh!)
Hazme el amor así
Y no me sueltes, no te vayas de mi lado
No, oh, oh, oh-oh
No, oh, oh, oh-oh-oh-oh (don't, don't let me go)
No te vayas de mi lado
No, oh, oh, oh-oh
No, oh, oh, oh-oh-oh-oh (don't-don't let me go)
No te sueltes de mi mano
Así bebé, como la última ve' que lo hicimo' (yeah)
No puedo olvidar cómo nos comimos
Recuerdo que el tiempo lo detuvimos
Y entre el fuego y la pasión nos perdimo' (¡sumba Alexis!)
Yo recorriendo tu piel con mis labios y dedos (ouh)
Tanto' detalle' que olvidar no puedo (no)
Todo está bien, pero cuando solo yo me quedo
Entre foto' y recuerdo' me enredo
