Becky G has officially dropped her first single of 2025 — and it’s a complete contrast to the Música Mexicana era she’s been in for the past two years.
Reeling in Colombian sensation Manuel Turizo, “Que Haces” is a merengue/bachata hybrid produced by Nup and Ciey. Lyrically, the song is flirty, cheeky and, in Becky’s own words, “atrevida” (daring), narrating the story of two people who like each other and have the urge to start dating.
“It really encompasses how romantic relationships are nowadays,” Becky G tells Billboard over a Zoom interview. “We can be super casual and get married tomorrow. The freedom of it is not just in the lyrics, but in the feeling: you can hear me smiling when you’re listening to it. There’s something very contagious about this record, I describe it as serotonin in a song.”

Marking her first collaborative effort with Turizo, the Mexican-American artist expresses she “definitely slid into his DMs” after the tune was done.
“As soon as I finished doing my thing, I remember thinking that there was only one person who could make this song be what it could be, and that’s when I reached out to Manuel,” she elaborates. “We were both so hands on with it. It’s the perfect synergy for sure.”
The music video, directed by Joey & Joey in the heart of Miami’s Hialeah neighborhood, celebrates the kind of puppy love that grows old together. But beyond the feel-good, romantic, and nostalgic elements found in the song and video, “Que Haces” represents an evolution for Becky.
“Coming out of [my música mexicana albums] ‘Esquinas’ and ‘Encuentros,’ I can confidently say that I’m a genre-less artist,” she notes. “This song is an evolution of me as an artist and a woman. I’m not rebranding or abandoning anything, I’m building something. Moving forward, my main focus is that no matter what music I make, Becky is going to be Becky.”
