King of Kings (Don Omar album)

King of Kings is Don Omar's second studio album. It was released on May 23, 2006 three years after his debut studio album The Last Don.

King of Kings: Armageddon Edition is the deluxe re-release of Don Omar's King of Kings released on December 19, 2006. The album was 11 weeks at the peak of Billboard Top Latin Albums in 2006.
