Sounds like moombahton to me! Though I can't say I'm an expert with genre classification either. Despite that, very nice work. I thoroughly enjoyed listening.
If I were to make any suggestions, one would be that perhaps it could use punchier drums. Have you ever used iZotope Ozone 5? It was suggested to me here on the forums before, and a friend of mine showed me the basics of how it works. It's truly impressive how much it helps! I definitely suggest it as well. If you actually use it already, or something like it, maybe the drums could just benefit from being a bit louder, I dunno. :3
The melodies are great in the song too. I want to mention that as well. Also, when the pace slows at around 4:09, awesome!
Have you ever tried side-chaining the bass so that the bass drums stand out more? I've found that can work wonders. Especially since the low end frequencies can become so crowded all the time.
