In 2006, "Torres Gemelas" (Twin Towers) was released. While the song is tragic in nature, the subject matter being Delfin losing a loved one in the terrorist attack of 9/11, the whimsical and kitschy nature of the song as well as the poor acting in the music video has made this song an internet meme.[1][6][7][8]

In April 2010 Defín Quishpe released the song "En tus Tierras Bailaré", featuring the two Peruvian "YouTube stars" Wendy Sulca and Tigresa del Oriente. The song received attention in Latin American media and rapidly got more than one million hits in a few weeks.[9] The song was later called a "Youtube We are the World" by Calle 13 singer Residente.[10]


Personal life


He has a wife, Rosario Urquiza Coro, and two children: Luis Rolando (2002–2018)[6] and Alex Delfín (born 2004).[4]
