Carlos Rivera pens a heartwarming love letter to his hometown Tlaxcala, Mexico and recruits the ever-so poetic Carlos Vives to serenade fans with “Te Soñé.” A beautiful vallenato, Rivera co-wrote this track with Julio Reyes Copello (who also produces the track), as the first single off Rivera’s forthcoming album. “‘Te Soñé’ is a love song to my homeland; It is the best way to tell people who I am, what my roots are,” Rivera shares in a statement. The music video to the prideful song is as colorful as its lyrics showcasing traditional and symbolic costumes and dances that give life to the Carnival of Tlaxcala.
For his first perreo track of the year, Balvin recruits Castro, an emerging artist also from Medellín, to deliver a new, sizzling summer single. Together, they bring forth hypnotizing beats that will make you play this song on repeat. The traditional perreo thumping beats fused with reggaetón drums and the duo’s skills give life to the track.
The Mexican rapper Santa Fe Klan trades his hard-hitting rap sessions for a stripped-down tender ballad that is inspired by his newborn son, Luka. Powered by a striking piano note, the emotional song finds the Guanajuato-born artist delivering a poem where he narrates a life-altering moment that has changed his perspective. “I hope our love is forever, I want to be the best for you,” he sings. “Let’s walk this world together, just ask the moon how much I love you.” For the first time in his career, the music and lyrics were both composed by Santa Fe Klan. The single will be part of Klan’s upcoming album. Read More...
