Justin Quiles Unleashes New Album ‘Permanente’ & More Best New Music Latin

New Music Latin is a compilation of the best new Latin songs and albums recommended by Billboard’s Latin and Billboard Español editors.

The 10-track set includes everything from romantic ballads to rock progressions, shades of blues and even mariachi — in songs like “Diamantes y Amaranto” and the powerful “Corazón en Coma” with Eden Muñoz — and emotional lyrics in the best style of the trio. Backed by a full banda ensemble, La Doña challenges conventional gender norms and delves into the intimate details of an infidelity fueled by mezcal in “Confesiones.” The song combines the honesty of traditional corridos with her poetic flair, while also showcasing her genre versatility — an artist who has long dabbled with reggaetón and experimental Latin pop. This second single follows “Mejor Que Amarte,” both of which will be part of her upcoming debut, Los Altos de la Soledad, due September 6, an album that will feature boleros, cumbia rebajada, banda, and reggaetón and cover themes of “forced migration, of falling in and out of love, of standing up against genocide, of fighting to maintain space in a as a brown girl in an inhospitable homeland,” she adds.
