Why Did Wisin Y Yandel Separate?

Wisin y Yandel's meteoric climb to fame was unprecedented when they formed their duo and dominated the reggaeton industry in 2005. They were the best-selling reggaeton band of their time, with ten number-one singles among their 22 Top 10 successes on Billboard's Hot Latin Songs list.
Despite the reports at the time, Wisin y Yandel decided to split amicably in 2013 after an amazing tenure. In response to rumors that Wisin was envious of Yandel's solo success, Yandel has said that such rumors are completely false.
While it's true that Wisin and Yandel both went on to have successful solo careers, the decision to part ways had less to do with the artists' respective musical goals than with "the management side" of their creative endeavor.
[Wisin and I] have a great relationship. The problem was the team, I would even go as far as saying that it was the management side of things. Now I'm running with my own team and I'm super happy.- Yandel told El Nuevo Dia
