First Stream Latin: New Music From Reik & Christian Nodal, Ecko’s Debut Album & More

Reik and Christian Nodal have joined forces for “Poco,” a heartfelt ranchera about finally overcoming a breakup. “From a kiss to kiss my broken heart has been able to heal/ I want to tell you that to forget you, very little is needed,” read part of the lyrics, composed by Andres Torres, Mauricio Rengifo and Camilo.

Bad Bunny Talks Surprise New Album ‘El Ultimo Tour del Mundo’ & Rosalia Collab

Jahycor [Jhay Cortez] and Mora already had the song written and prepared. I added my lyrics, my touch, over Jhay Cortez’s rhythm. Then we sent it to Tainy so he could also put his touch, and everything was a very dynamic, very cool team effort. I really liked the ...
