The annual BMI Latin Awards will honour Luis Fonsi not only for his mega smash Despacito but for the string of hits he’s racked up over two decades.

Fonsi is set to receive the BMI President’s Award on March 20 in Beverly Hills, California.

BMI says it is honouring Fonsi for being one of the “most influential” Latin music songwriters and also for his humanitarian work. The Puerto Rican singer was involved with helping the island after last year’s devastating hurricane.
