New Music Friday: Cardi B, Katzu Oso,

Happy Friday! As we enter fall, we say goodbye to a summer that was filled with incredible music. But that doesn’t mean the bangers are stopping. Get your playlist ready and let’s keep the party going with our weekly roundup of fresh music from A-List names, rising stars, and a variety of genres. 

Mon Laferte, NATHY PELUSO – La Tirana

Two talented queens, Mon Laferte and Nathy Peluso, show off their stunning vocals with “La Tirana.” It’s a chilling collaboration showcasing their raw talent with perfect harmonies and intensity as they pay tribute to La Lupe. The artists both received two separate nominations for the 2025 Latin GRAMMY Awards.  

Banda MS de Sergio Lizárraga & Fuerza Regida – Seguro Le Dolió

Global powerhouse Fuerza Regida has teamed up with the legendary Banda MS for their new single “Seguro Le Dolió,” a heartbreak anthem that blends both groups’ signature sounds. The track comes amid the shocking news that Fuerza Regida’s album 111XPANTIA was not nominated for anything at the Latin GRAMMYS. They did, however, pick up a nomination for best regional song for  “Me Jalo” with Grupo Frontera.

Cardi B – Safe (feat. Kehlani) 

Cardi B’s long-awaited album Am I The Drama has finally arrived after weeks of incredible marketing. The album is filled with epic collaborations, including “Safe” with Kehlani. It comes with a music video where art imitates life, with a pregnant Cardi B showing the highs and lows of a tumultuous relationship that ends tragically. 

Katzù Oso – Corazones Desechables 

Katzù Oso releases the latest single off his upcoming album La Conexión. The Spanish pop song gets funky, electric, and reflective as he looks back on a toxic relationship. The up-and-coming Latino artist from Los Angeles is one to watch as he perfectly blends synth, psychedelic rock, and Latin culture. 

Maffio, Nonô, Lenny Tavárez, Benny Adam – Incondicional (Les Trois Monde)

Maffio drops his third studio album R.D.L.D. (Rey de la Discoteca), a project he calls “more than a title, it’s a statement… my contribution, my voice, my Afro-Latin and tropical essence joining that infinite kingdom that already exists.” The 12-track album blends Latin and Caribbean roots with the pulse of global electronic music, featuring collaborations with Wisin, Anitta, Shaggy, Guaynaa, Afro Bros, and more. The focus track “Incondicional (Les Trois Monde)”, Lenny Tavárez, Benny Adam, and Nonô, takes you on a global journey.

Maria Becerra, TINI – HASTA QUE ME ENAMORO

Maria Becerra and Tini reunite with “Hasta que me enamoro,” their first collab since the global hit “Miénteme,” which has racked up over 1.6 billion streams. The track closes the trilogy of Shanina, Maria’s alter ego, diving into themes of obsession, dependency, and self-deception. With an afrobeat sound, the song captures that free-fall moment between love and fear of abandonment.

Junior H – Culpable 

Junior H shows another side of himself with “Culpable.” The Mexican singer is known as a leader in the corridos tumbados movement, but with this latest release, he achieves a smooth, jazzy, romantic vibe with stunning instrumentals and melodies that will captivate your ears.  

Miguel – El Pleito

Just in time for Hispanic Heritage Month, Miguel honors his Mexican roots with “El Pleito.” The hauntingly beautiful melody, combined with the Grammy-winning R&B singer’s smooth vocals, will make you melt. It’s the latest single from his upcoming 5th studio album, CAOS. 

Miley Cyrus – Secrets ft. Lindsey Buckingham, Mick Fleetwood

Miley Cyrus reclaims the narrative surrounding her past feud with her father, Billy Ray Cyrus, sharing the song she wrote for him for his birthday. “This song was written as a peace offering for someone I had lost for a time but always loved. In my experience, forgiveness and freedom are one and the same,” she wrote on Instagram. “This song is for my dad.”

Jorge Drexler – El fin y el medio

Jorge Drexler is back with “El fin y el medio.” With his signature sound, the Uruguayan icon processes the uncertainty, anger, and fear we’re all living through. The 15-time Latin GRAMMY winner first started writing the lyrics years ago, but only recently found the right moment to finish them.
