If hearing Daddy Yankee on a dancehall throwback tip has you feeling déjà vu, rest assured that’s a valid response. As if getting the proverbial band back together wasn’t enough to make it a hit, their joint track interpolates Jamaican singer Ini Kamoze’s “Here Comes The Hotstepper,” a reggae smash that topped Billboard’s all-genre Hot 100 singles chart back in 1995. Largely estranged for over a decade-and-a-half following a devastating schism, the erstwhile duo of Daddy Yankee and Nicky Jam made their reconciliation official with the release of “Muévelo,” a thumping reggaetón cut that overtly links their shared past with their respective contemporary successes as urbano soloists. Yet none of Balvin’s formidable tracks of the moment packed quite the emotional impact and inherent sense of history-in-the-making of the reunion of Los Cangris. And with a star-studded new remix of DJ Snake’s “Loco Contigo” that scraps Tyga’s verse for fresh features by Natti Natasha, Ozuna and Sech, among others, he starts out the new decade in a pretty stellar position.

Coming off a landmark year of global commercial wins, J Balvin unveiled his second straight color-themed single in a row, trading the ascetic purity of last year’s “Blanco” for the violaceous excess of “Morado.” Around the same time, an official Bad Boys For Life movie soundtrack reveal promised the imminent release of a remix of “Ritmo,” his Billboard Latin chart-topping Black Eyed Peas team-up, with none other than Jaden Smith. Just two weeks into 2020, música urbana’s biggest stars are already fully engaged in a battle for reggaetón dominance.
