"Wepa" is a song recorded by Cuban-American singer Gloria Estefan for her twelfth studio album, Miss Little Havana. The song was written by Gloria Estefan and her husband, Emilio Estefan Jr. and by American producer and musician Pharrell Williams, while production was credited to Estefan Jr. and Williams. The single was released by Verve Forecast Records on July 24, 2011 digitally worldwide as the lead single from Miss Little Havana.
Backed by strong synthesizers, "Wepa" is a dance-pop song with strong elements of latin house music, merengue rhythms, and a bit of Hi-NRG. Upon its release the song received favorable reviews, praising her connection with the early records with the Miami Sound Machine dance-numbers. Some music critics compared this song to the electronic material released by American singer Ke$ha.
Commercially, the single was a success, becoming on Estefan's sixth number-one song on the "Hot Dance Club Songs" chart, being her twenty-third entry on the chart, since she began with her first dance-hit " Dr. Beat" back in 1984. An accompanying music video was premiered to support the single; the song was also remixed to fit different formats, including several remixes done by global DJs such as Ralphi Rosario, Chuckie and R3hab, who featured a special collaboration with Cuban rapper Pitbull.
