Ryan Castro, Shakira & More: Which Is Your Favorite New Latin Music Release of the Week?

This week, Billboard’s New Music Latin roundup and playlist — curated by Billboard Latin and Billboard Español editors — features fresh new music from artists including new releases from Ryan Castro, Shakira and Rauw Alejandro, to name a few. 

Ryan Castro teams up with newcomer Hamilton for “A Poca Luz.” Produced by The Prodigiez, the track is a departure from Castro’s signature perreo and dives into the chill rhythms of Amapiano laced with house beats. “I promised the moon that before the sun comes out, she was going to be mine […] my beautiful flower that drives me crazy,” Castro sings in the heartfelt song.

Meanwhile, Daddy Yankee blesses fans with a new song that thrives on a message of resilience and faith. In “Bailando en la Lluvia,” which in English translates to dancing in the rain, the reggaetón titan fuses his signature percussion-laden beat with a vibrant tropical pop melody as he invites fans in the lyrics to face adversity with trust in God.

Other new Latin releases this week include Shakira’s “Soltera,” Rosalía’s “Omega” featuring Ralphie Choo, Oscar Maydon and Fuerza Regida’s collaborative effort, titled “Tu Boda,” Sofía Reyes’ “Bi,” and Ha*Ash and Joss Favela’s “Nuestro Camino.”
