Tranki, Todo Pasa

Tranki, Todo Pasa Album ∙ Urbano latino ∙ 2024 Sech “In this moment, I am enjoying everything I do, as if I was starting from scratch,” Sech tells Apple Music. The singer and producer from Río Abajo had not released an album since   42 , in 2021. But now that he has signed a contract with Rimas Entertainment, the same label as Bad Bunny, the Panamanian is at an enviable peak of creativity. “I’ve grown more as a person and have learned not to focus on the negative aspects of life,” he explains. “I’ll try to breathe and get better, focus on my health, mind, and heart. This is a maturity stage.” Sech channels the progressive tendencies of neo-reggaetón on “Picasso,” which complements its futuristic rhythm with a sample of “Rosas,” the pop anthem by Spanish band La Oreja de Van Gogh. On “1-0,” he teams up with ELENA ROSE to explore the textures of Afrobeat, relying on sharp electric guitar lines to support lyrics about heartbreak. On the verge of turning 31, Sech has found a new defini...

Cosa Nuestra

Cosa Nuestra Album ∙ Urbano latino ∙ 2024 Rauw Alejandro Operating at an exceptionally high level in the past few years made Rauw Alejandro a bona fide Latin music superstar. His proverbial star shone brightly on 2023’s   SATURNO   and the corresponding   PLAYA SATURNO , each showing how innovative the one-time R&B reggaetonero had become. Given the retro-futurist musical vision executed on that pair of projects, his decision to open his subsequent album   Cosa Nuestra   with the Afro-Cuban song stylings of its title track feels all the more bold in intention. Indeed, just as he’s explored and expanded upon sounds beyond the reggaetón and trap that earned him early acclaim, he appears eager to broaden and mature further at this notable stage in his career. Those concerned that   Cosa Nuestra   would prove a strictly old-school affair have no need to worry. Apart from a fairly faithful rendition of salsa romántica staple “Tú Con Él”—its lyrical them...

PRIMERA MUSA

  PRIMERA MUSA Album ∙ Urbano latino ∙ 2024 Omar Courtz “En Puerto Rico, los artistas más nuevos se han alejado un poco del reggaetón”, le cuenta Omar Courtz a Apple Music. “Quiero poner a sonar de nuevo ese reggaetón de Puerto Rico que se ha perdido un poco en los últimos años”. Una declaración tan ambiciosa como personal que demuestra que, para el nacido en Carolina, sus orígenes y la manera en que los defiende lo son todo. OC es parte de una nueva camada de artistas de la Isla que ganaron notoriedad en el underground local, para después pasar a ser la apuesta de estrellas consolidadas con quienes ahora se colocan codo a codo. Tras años de picar piedra, el nacido en Carolina llega al primer gran momento de su carrera,   PRIMERA MUSA . La inspiración y el concepto de su álbum debut son claros: la música con la que se formó y creció en Puerto Rico. “Cuando escogí los temas, pensé en los que me dieron más musas. Esos que me recordaban a artistas que escuchaba cuando era ch...

SOLO

SOLO Album ∙ Urbano latino ∙ 2024 Chencho Corleone When Chencho Corleone formed Plan B with Maldy back in 1999, reggaetón was still a relatively emerging genre. The Puerto Rican duo experienced the music’s explosive growth firsthand up until their 2018 breakup. Yet while many perreo pioneers faded into the background as new entrants rose, Chencho enjoyed a 2020s resurgence. His high-profile collaborations with Bad Bunny and Ozuna, to name but a few, transported him from a respectable legacy artist’s fate to a place in Latin music’s modern vanguard. A debut album some 25 years in the making,  SOLO  at last puts the veteran reggaetonero center stage for a victory lap that feels fresh. Though his guest list includes hitmakers Rauw Alejandro and Peso Pluma, the 18-song effort is considerably lighter on features than one might have expected. Instead, he showcases his talents largely on his own over a tight mix of styles, including the dancehall-infused “Tremenda Ansiedad” and the c...
