With collaborations that include Ricky Martin, Daddy Yankee, Grupo Firme, Kapo, Sech, Be\u00e9le, and his son Austin San, the 20-track set is Arca\u2019s more mature and experimental album to date. Sonically, it\u2019s packed with merengue (\u201cHoy Se Guaya\u201d), afro house (\u201cChula\u201d),\u00a0banda (\u201cCu\u00e1nto Cuesta\u201d), Jersey club (\u201cEse Labial\u201d), pop (\u201cLluvia\u201d) and his signature R&B and reggaet\u00f3n sound. Lyrically, he focused on romantic, tasteful and faith-based lyrics, such as \u201cDi Am\u00e9n\u201d \u2014 far from the underground, polemical, and racy identity that helped fuel his success.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \">\n\tIn a recent <em>Billboard Espa\u00f1ol<\/em> <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.billboard.com\/music\/latin\/arcangel-billboard-espanol-cover-story-interview-1236149687\/\">cover story<\/a>, the Puerto Rican artist proudly shared that beyond his musical evolution, La 8va Maravilla is his first sober album, one that was born following an open-heart surgery: \u201cIt made me realize that I don\u2019t need [to consume] anything to create. I can create at any time, even in my worst moments. If for 20 years I created music in a not-so-healthy way, making music during very dark times, imagine what I can do now that I\u2019m sober and feeling better personally.\u201d \u2014 <em>JESSICA ROIZ<\/em><\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \">\n\t<strong>Codiciado, \u201cTodo Pendejo\u201d (CodiRecords \/ ADA)<\/strong><\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube\"\/>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \">\n\tFor his first release of the year, Codiciado bares it all with \u201cTodo Pendejo,\u201d a heart-wrenching, tequila-soaked anthem for the brokenhearted. Opening with a melancholic harmonica that flirts with a country twang, the track feels unfiltered as Eric Arag\u00f3n (real name) sings of regret and the sting of love gone wrong. The song\u2019s confessional tone is best summed up in the lyric:\u00a0<em>\u201cMe diste en el ego, qu\u00e9 triste aceptar, y as\u00ed de pendejo s\u00e9 que me quieres mucho.\u201d<\/em>\u00a0(\u201cYou hurt my ego, how sad to admit, and I know you love me so much.\u201d) It\u2019s three minutes of vulnerability and pain, wrapped in a deceptively simple yet emotionally gripping melody that sticks with you long after the final note. If this is how the Tijuana star is kicking off the year, expect 2026 to be drenched in tear-soaked corridos. \u2014\u00a0<em>ISABELA RAYGOZA<\/em><\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \">\n\t<strong>Joaquina, \u201cPelinegra\u201d (Universal Music Latino)<\/strong><\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube\"\/>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \">\n\tThe love between sisters is beautifully encapsulated in \u201cpelinegra,\u201d the latest single from Venezuelan singer-songwriter Joaquina, dedicated to her younger sister, Guillermina (Kiki). Driven by gentle electric guitar riffs and drums, this sublime pop ballad captures the purest feeling inspired by someone who shares our same upbringing and DNA. \u201cWe\u2019ll leave this house in a few years, no longer sharing adjoining rooms, but I\u2019ll always be by your side,\u201d Joaquina sings soulfully. The music video, directed by Z\u00e1rate, features young Venezuelan dancer Salom\u00e9 Rivas (or Baby Salom\u00e9) sweetly dancing alongside Joaquina as if she were her younger sister, before the real Kiki appears to embrace the singer at the end.\u00a0<em>\u2013 SIGAL RATNER-ARIAS<\/em><\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \">\n\t<strong>Banda Los Sebastianes de Sa\u00fal Plata & Gerardo Coronel, \u201cAl chile no s\u00e9\u201d (Fono)<\/strong><\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube\"\/>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \">\n\tThe collaboration between one of the most respected bands from Sinaloa and one of today\u2019s most successful solo artists is surprising because of the seamless blend they achieved, not only musically but also in terms of style. Banda Los Sebastianes, led by Sa\u00fal Plata, delivers a powerful sound with its drums, trumpets and tuba, paving the way for the compelling performance of Gerardo Coronel, the master of heartbreak. There\u2019s no room for reconciliation here; this song is for those who are hurt by love but aren\u2019t willing to suffer again. It hurts, but you\u2019ll get over it.\u00a0<em>\u2013 TERE AGUILERA<\/em><\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \">\n\t<strong>El David Aguilar & Jay de la Cueva, \u201cLumbre\u201d (Universal Music M\u00e9xico)<\/strong><\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube\"\/>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \">\n\tMexican singer-songwriter El David Aguilar presents the third single from his upcoming album, which will be released this year \u2014 a melancholic track very much in the style of Latin American ballads from the 1970s. On this heartfelt love song, he is joined by the prolific musician Jay de la Cueva, his friend and bandmate in the supergroup The Guapos, whose vocals add depth and emotion to this intense and passionate tune. \u201cI hope everything explodes between us\/ And that when we wake up there\u2019s nothing left but fire\/ Fire\/ Fire,\u201d Aguilar sings in a nod to desire and a plea for love. The string arrangement lends elegance, nostalgia, and even a touch of drama, to this piece dedicated to human passion.\u00a0<em>\u2014 NATALIA CANO<\/em><\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \">\n\t<strong>Carolina Ross, \u201cLo que se dice amor\u201d (Fono)<\/strong><\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube\"\/>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \">\n\tMelancholy and sadness are the first things that come to mind when you hear the opening chords of this song about a love that never came to fruition despite the effort and intention. Two great songwriters, M\u00f3nica V\u00e9lez and Aaron \u201cEl Pantera\u201d Mart\u00ednez, combined their talents to write about broken promises with somewhat raw but honest lyrics. A seemingly weeping accordion, gentle guitars, and a subdued trumpet provide the mariachi accompaniment to the sweet yet powerful voice of Carolina Ross, who continues to release songs from her upcoming album,\u00a0<em>Coleccionando Corazones<\/em>, due in March.\u00a0<em>\u2013 T.A.<\/em><\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \">\n\t<strong>Marky O, Alex Zurdo, \u201cCanta y Sonr\u00ede\u201d (MP Music\/ONErpm)<\/strong><\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube\"\/>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \">\n\tIn a first collaborative effort, Marky O, a former <em>Billboard<\/em> On the Radar Latin artist, and renowned Christian singer Alex Zurdo, team up for \u201cCanta y Sonr\u00ede\u201d (Sing and Smile). Produced by Cuban hitmakers Nando Pro and La Companioni, the song is an uplifting urban-tropical fusion with flairs of <em>reparto<\/em> music towards the end.

With collaborations that include Ricky Martin, Daddy Yankee, Grupo Firme, Kapo, Sech, Be\u00e9le, and his son Austin San, the 20-track set is Arca\u2019s more mature and experimental album to date. Sonically, it\u2019s packed with merengue (\u201cHoy Se Guaya\u201d), afro house (\u201cChula\u201d),\u00a0banda (\u201cCu\u00e1nto Cuesta\u201d), Jersey club (\u201cEse Labial\u201d), pop (\u201cLluvia\u201d) and his signature R&B and reggaet\u00f3n sound. Lyrically, he focused on romantic, tasteful and faith-based lyrics, such as \u201cDi Am\u00e9n\u201d \u2014 far from the underground, polemical, and racy identity that helped fuel his success.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \">\n\tIn a recent <em>Billboard Espa\u00f1ol<\/em> <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.billboard.com\/music\/latin\/arcangel-billboard-espanol-cover-story-interview-1236149687\/\">cover story<\/a>, the Puerto Rican artist proudly shared that beyond his musical evolution, La 8va Maravilla is his first sober album, one that was born following an open-heart surgery: \u201cIt made me realize that I don\u2019t need [to consume] anything to create. I can create at any time, even in my worst moments. If for 20 years I created music in a not-so-healthy way, making music during very dark times, imagine what I can do now that I\u2019m sober and feeling better personally.\u201d \u2014 <em>JESSICA ROIZ<\/em><\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \">\n\t<strong>Codiciado, \u201cTodo Pendejo\u201d (CodiRecords \/ ADA)<\/strong><\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube\"\/>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \">\n\tFor his first release of the year, Codiciado bares it all with \u201cTodo Pendejo,\u201d a heart-wrenching, tequila-soaked anthem for the brokenhearted. Opening with a melancholic harmonica that flirts with a country twang, the track feels unfiltered as Eric Arag\u00f3n (real name) sings of regret and the sting of love gone wrong. The song\u2019s confessional tone is best summed up in the lyric:\u00a0<em>\u201cMe diste en el ego, qu\u00e9 triste aceptar, y as\u00ed de pendejo s\u00e9 que me quieres mucho.\u201d<\/em>\u00a0(\u201cYou hurt my ego, how sad to admit, and I know you love me so much.\u201d) It\u2019s three minutes of vulnerability and pain, wrapped in a deceptively simple yet emotionally gripping melody that sticks with you long after the final note. If this is how the Tijuana star is kicking off the year, expect 2026 to be drenched in tear-soaked corridos. \u2014\u00a0<em>ISABELA RAYGOZA<\/em><\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \">\n\t<strong>Joaquina, \u201cPelinegra\u201d (Universal Music Latino)<\/strong><\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube\"\/>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \">\n\tThe love between sisters is beautifully encapsulated in \u201cpelinegra,\u201d the latest single from Venezuelan singer-songwriter Joaquina, dedicated to her younger sister, Guillermina (Kiki). Driven by gentle electric guitar riffs and drums, this sublime pop ballad captures the purest feeling inspired by someone who shares our same upbringing and DNA. \u201cWe\u2019ll leave this house in a few years, no longer sharing adjoining rooms, but I\u2019ll always be by your side,\u201d Joaquina sings soulfully. The music video, directed by Z\u00e1rate, features young Venezuelan dancer Salom\u00e9 Rivas (or Baby Salom\u00e9) sweetly dancing alongside Joaquina as if she were her younger sister, before the real Kiki appears to embrace the singer at the end.\u00a0<em>\u2013 SIGAL RATNER-ARIAS<\/em><\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \">\n\t<strong>Banda Los Sebastianes de Sa\u00fal Plata & Gerardo Coronel, \u201cAl chile no s\u00e9\u201d (Fono)<\/strong><\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube\"\/>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \">\n\tThe collaboration between one of the most respected bands from Sinaloa and one of today\u2019s most successful solo artists is surprising because of the seamless blend they achieved, not only musically but also in terms of style. Banda Los Sebastianes, led by Sa\u00fal Plata, delivers a powerful sound with its drums, trumpets and tuba, paving the way for the compelling performance of Gerardo Coronel, the master of heartbreak. There\u2019s no room for reconciliation here; this song is for those who are hurt by love but aren\u2019t willing to suffer again. It hurts, but you\u2019ll get over it.\u00a0<em>\u2013 TERE AGUILERA<\/em><\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \">\n\t<strong>El David Aguilar & Jay de la Cueva, \u201cLumbre\u201d (Universal Music M\u00e9xico)<\/strong><\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube\"\/>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \">\n\tMexican singer-songwriter El David Aguilar presents the third single from his upcoming album, which will be released this year \u2014 a melancholic track very much in the style of Latin American ballads from the 1970s. On this heartfelt love song, he is joined by the prolific musician Jay de la Cueva, his friend and bandmate in the supergroup The Guapos, whose vocals add depth and emotion to this intense and passionate tune. \u201cI hope everything explodes between us\/ And that when we wake up there\u2019s nothing left but fire\/ Fire\/ Fire,\u201d Aguilar sings in a nod to desire and a plea for love. The string arrangement lends elegance, nostalgia, and even a touch of drama, to this piece dedicated to human passion.\u00a0<em>\u2014 NATALIA CANO<\/em><\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \">\n\t<strong>Carolina Ross, \u201cLo que se dice amor\u201d (Fono)<\/strong><\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube\"\/>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \">\n\tMelancholy and sadness are the first things that come to mind when you hear the opening chords of this song about a love that never came to fruition despite the effort and intention. Two great songwriters, M\u00f3nica V\u00e9lez and Aaron \u201cEl Pantera\u201d Mart\u00ednez, combined their talents to write about broken promises with somewhat raw but honest lyrics. A seemingly weeping accordion, gentle guitars, and a subdued trumpet provide the mariachi accompaniment to the sweet yet powerful voice of Carolina Ross, who continues to release songs from her upcoming album,\u00a0<em>Coleccionando Corazones<\/em>, due in March.\u00a0<em>\u2013 T.A.<\/em><\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \">\n\t<strong>Marky O, Alex Zurdo, \u201cCanta y Sonr\u00ede\u201d (MP Music\/ONErpm)<\/strong><\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube\"\/>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \">\n\tIn a first collaborative effort, Marky O, a former <em>Billboard<\/em> On the Radar Latin artist, and renowned Christian singer Alex Zurdo, team up for \u201cCanta y Sonr\u00ede\u201d (Sing and Smile).
