NATHY PELUSO, Rawayana – MALPORTADA
Nathy Peluso has officially dropped her new salsa EP Malportada. She turns up the heat with Rawayana on the title track, “Malportada.” “Straight from Venezuela, one of the most beautiful cradles of salsa that I love so much. Beto is the mischievous one, with a good heart and good lyrics—the perfect partner to sing with and lose all composure,” Peluso said. Rawayana’s Beto Montenegro shared, “I’m so excited that ‘Malportada’ is gonna be on her album, because as a kid, I didn’t have the best grades in school, and that got me in trouble a ton. Now I feel very proud of who I’ve become, and even more so to be able to share it with this powerhouse Nathy “f***ing” Peluso.”
Princess Nokia – Medusa
Princess Nokia has returned with a vengeance. The powerful and talented Afro-Latina has dropped her album GIRLS, and it’s incredible. The 12-track body of work shows off her range and feminine rage as she continues to move like a chameleon, never staying in one box or genre of music. “Medusa” is an intense, lyrical masterpiece that calls back her power.
Bomba Estéreo, Carlos Vives – La Samaria
Bomba Estéreo is back with “La Samaria,” their first single since ASTROPICAL, teaming up with Colombian legend Carlos Vives to honor their shared coastal roots in Santa Marta. It’s a tropical and catchy track that brings all the good vibes. “This song means so much to me because it’s about my homeland, where I grew up, where I was born and raised, and where I became the person I am,” says vocalist Li Saumet. “I invited Carlos because he represents that samaria spirit in music — he shares that same love for the land and that same connection to la Sierra.”
JHAYCO – SCORPIO
Puerto Rican-American artist, songwriter, and producer Jhayco is back with “Scorpio,” his first release of the year. The alt-reggaetón track marks the start of a new era inspired by a late-night drive through the Everglades, blending introspection, culture, and his signature edge.
TINI – Una Noche Más
TINI drops her new electro-merengue single “Una Noche Más,” blending her smooth vocals with a dance-ready beat. The video reunites her with Quebranto co-star Jorge López for a candlelit dinner in the woods, with TINI looking stunning as she embraces her sensuality.
BIA – HARD WAY ft. Becky G
Becky G teams up with BIA on “The Hard Way,” a standout from BIA’s debut album BIANCA. The track opens with a familiar sound sampling Shakira’s “Hips Don’t Lie” and fuses Becky’s smooth pop touch with BIA’s bold rap energy, creating a powerful blend of Latin and hip-hop vibes that highlights both artists at their best.
Thalia – Ojitos Mexicanos
Thalía, one of Latin pop’s most beloved icons, releases her new single “Ojitos Mexicanos,” a vibrant cumbia that celebrates her Mexican roots and artistic legacy. “This song fills me with joy because it connects with my essence and with the music I’ve carried in my heart forever,” she says. The track’s lively accordions and brass are paired with a colorful music video nodding to her iconic telenovela Marimar, marking “the beginning of a very special chapter” in her career.
Oklou & FKA twigs – viscus
French musician and singer Oklou teams up with FKA twigs for “viscus.” The ethereal and electric track feels futuristic with the singer’s voices and harmonies melting together beautifully.
Shakira – Zoo
Shakira is bringing her voice back to ZOOTOPIA 2, returning as Gazelle, the famous Zootopian popstar and predator rights activist. It’s soundtracked with another original song, “Zoo” by Shakira, and co-written with Ed Sheeran and Blake Slatkin. Back in 2016, with the original film, Shakira’s “Try Everything” was more than just a soundtrack song; it became a global hit with over 2.7 billion streams to date.
Demi Lovato – Kiss
GRAMMY-nominated superstar Demi Lovato drops her viral new single “Kiss,” a flirty, dance-pop banger from her upcoming ninth album It’s Not That Deep. “Kiss” quickly became a fan favorite after Demi teased it at LOOSE in LA and her PAPER Magazine cover party in NYC, racking up over 60 million combined views.
