Tego is known for standing out in comparison to most reggaeton acts in that he is well known for incorporating lyricism in the form of punchlines and metaphors from traditional hip hop into the reggaeton and "dembow" rhythms of his more pop influenced club songs. This is very uncommon in modern reggaeton as most performers today have very simple lyrics that are often not meant to be thought provoking, witty or insightful. Much of reggaeton's subdued lyrics are due to artists such as Daddy Yankee purposefully simplifying their lyrical content in order to appeal to a much more pop-oriented mainstream audience due to the fact traditional reggaeton and Spanish hip hop is foreign to most people. Tego is more in tune with the culture's roots and influenced by the lyricism and social consciousness of artists such as Vico C, Eddie Dee, and Nach Scratch.
