Beéle, Marc Anthony, “Dios Me Oyó” (Hear This Music, LLC)
Breakout Colombian star Beéle and salsa music icon Marc Anthony join forces on this infectious Afrobeats track, where the former’s tropical and urban sound blends beautifully with the latter’s romanticism, transporting us to a Caribbean love scene. “God heard me, hey, God heard me/ You’re holy water and I drink it myself,” goes the catchy chorus. “Dios Me Oyó” is “a love letter” to Beéle’s roots.
“I was born into a family full of Colombia’s coastal culture. We’ve been salsa and African music lovers for as long as I can remember,” the 21-year-old singer-songwriter explains in a press release. “So to now have a song with someone I grew up listening to-Marc Anthony- it just makes sense. It’s more than a dream come true. It’s destiny.” Destiny or not, we couldn’t be happier about this pairing. — SIGAL RATNER-ARIAS

Ana Bárbara x Yahritza y Su Esencia, “Besos Robados” (Columbia Records / Sony Music)
After performing the song together in concert, Ana Bárbara and Yahritza y Su Esencia officially release their first collaborative effort “Besos Robados.” Backed by weeping requintos and a deep tololoche bass, the heartfelt track best showcases both Bárbara and Yahritza’s powerful vocals. Co-written by the two artists, the melancholic sierreño song was beautifully crafted for those who are in love, but have to let go. “I wanted you by my side/ But what we shared were robbed kisses/ It’s best if I say goodbye,” they passionately harmonize in the chorus. A music video — featuring Ana with the famed siblings group creating the song in the recording studio and with video bits of their live performance on stage — accompanies the track. — JESSICA ROIZ
Código FN, “Me Gustas 1CH!NG0” (Al Millón Music)
Código FN, known as one of the greatest exponents of corridos, surprises with a rhythmic norteño tejano cumbia with romantic lyrics —with a very contemporary style. Written by José Ernesto León Cuén, Roberto Zamudio Ramos, and Salvador Aponte, “Me Gustas 1CH!NG0″ invites to dance from the first chords with a cadenced rhythm, a concept they have been mastering since their previous single, “Cajeta,” both part of their upcoming studio album Géminis, to be released in June. With 15 years in music, Código FN demonstrates their versatility and interest in continuing to advance their career. —TERE AGUILERA
Xavi & Neton Vega, “Hija de Papi” (Interscope Records)
Xavi and Netón Vega’s “Hija de Papi” is a playful ode to young love and indulgent reckless nights, wrapped in the infectious grooves of corridos tumbados. The tololoche hits as the duo delivers witty lyrics, painting the picture of a “fresa” girl with lavish tastes — Birkin bags, black cards and chaos aplenty. Lines like “carita de Barbie, cuerpazo de Bratz” and “Me siguе la cura siempre andando en еl desmadre” reveal the song’s edgy, tongue-in-cheek attitude, while its high-energy production by Xavi keeps things dynamic. Riding immense TikTok hype, the track cements the chemistry between Xavi and Netón, emerging as an anthem for lavish lifestyles and wild romance. Whether sipping jarabe or chasing trouble, “Hija de Papi” captures the uncontainable spirit of the música mexicana’s rising stars. — ISABELA RAYGOZA
Ariza, Morat, “Ciudad Amurallada” (Ariza)
Colombian producer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist ARIZA teams up with the vibrant pop rock band Morat for his captivating new single, “Ciudad Amurallada.” This emotionally-charged piece delves into the tender nuances of love and serves as a captivating first peek of his forthcoming album. The song opens with the evocative lines, “I want to be the calm that covers you in the mornings,” wrapped in a delicate piano melody that gradually grows into a rich and immersive sonic landscape. “Ciudad Amurallada” is a masterclass in musical dynamics, skillfully meshing ARIZA’s minimalist-yet-intentional production style with the unique vocal textures that are the hallmark of Morat’s distinctive sound. — INGRID FAJARDO
