This week, Billboard’s New Music Latin roundup and playlist — curated by Billboard Latin and Billboard Español editors — features fresh new albums from artists such as Danny Ocean, Kany García, Eladio Carrion and Fonseca, to name a few.
Dubbing it the “pop of the future,” Danny Ocean presents his third studio album, Reflexa. Navigating through heartbreak, lust, love and the desire to live authentically, the 12-track set is perhaps Danny’s most personal album yet, but it’s also his most sonically experimental — in it he fuses his signature pop sound with electro and Middle Eastern influences.
In “García,” the title track of Kany García’s new album, the Puerto Rican singer-songwriter pens a letter to herself, addressing the young, vulnerable Kany and the present day star, equally vulnerable (“Tengo miedo de meterme en esta ola de ficción/I’m afraid of losing myself in this wave of fiction”).
Other new releases include Piso 21 and Wisin’s “La Misión”; Silvestre Dangond and Carlos Vives’ “Tú o Yo,” and more.
Last week, music fans voted for Belinda and Natanael Cano’s new single “300 Noches” as their favorite music release of that week. Coming in closely behind was Anitta’s new album, Funk Generation, which had 41 percent of the vote. Beli and Cano’s heartbreak track — produced by Marcelo Rivera Levy, Mr. Naisgai and Ángel Sandoval — beat out other new releases such as Yuridia and Los Ángeles Azules’ “Felicítalo”; Rels B and Junior H’s “Un Desperdicio”; Bruses and Humbe’s “Bestia”; Aitana and Sebastián Yatra’s “Akureyri”; Danny Ocean’s “Ley Universal” and Marc Anthony’s new album, Muevense.
