Guerra won 3 Latin Grammy Awards in 2010, including Album of the Year. In 2012, he won the Latin Grammy Award for Producer of the Year.
Guerra is one of the most internationally recognized Latin artists of recent decades. His popular style of merengue and Afro-Latin fusion has garnered him considerable success throughout Latin America. He is also credited for popularizing bachata music on a global level and is often associated with the genre, although his distinct style of bachata features a more traditional bolero rhythm and aesthetic mixed with bossa-nova influenced melodies and harmony in some of his songs. He does not limit himself to one style of music; instead, he incorporates diverse rhythms like merengue, bachata-fusion, balada, salsa, rock and roll, and even gospel. "Ojalá Que Llueva Café" ("I Wish It Would Rain Coffee"), which is one of his most critically acclaimed pieces.

LA GUERRA
by: Aventurami amor ya yo no aguanto esta guerra con tu padre

Girl: papa no te va escuchar yo se que vas a fracasar
mejor que piense en lo que yo siento por ti
Giel: te amo pero por favor no ponga en riesgo nuestra amor

Girl: mi amor no te imaginas como yo me estoy sintiendo cuando me hablan mal de ti si no son los vecinos es mi padre con consejos no puedo seguir hasi
