New Music Latin: Listen to Releases From Wisin & Gabito Ballesteros, Plus More
New Music Latin is a compilation of the best new Latin songs and albums recommended by Billboard Latin and Billboard Español editors.
After sharing the best pop-rock song Latin Grammy award with Lasso for the hit “Ojos Marrones” last November, the duo LAGOS — made up of Venezuelan musicians Luis Jiménez and Agustín Zubillaga — joins forces with another compatriot for a new pop anthem: “Blanco y Negro,” with prominent singer-songwriter Elena Rose. With WOS’ energetic delivery and the powerful sonic architecture of Gustavo Santaolalla — also co-produced by Evlay and Francisco Azorai — the chorus “ Será melancolía/ de una vida sin receta ” encapsulates the song’s theme of navigating a world without instructions. Peruvian music icon Gian Marco teams up with talented Monsieur Periné vocalist Catalina García on the captivating ballad “Tú.” The acoustic collaboration, which is the fourth track previewing the Peruvian artist’s upcoming album Aún Me Sigo Encontrando, masterfully fuses their voices together in a sublime performance, giving life to a beautiful Andean song — accompanied by the distinctive sound of the charango, a typical instrument of this South American region.
