Check out some of the most highly-anticipated drops down below:

1. Sech featuring J Balvin & Daddy Yankee - “Sal y Perrea” Remix

Earlier this year, Panamanian superstar Sech released “Sal y Perrea,” which has since reached over 86 million views on Youtube. Now, the song has been given a second life with a remix from two of the biggest named in Latin music: J Balvin and Daddy Yankee.

Sech first broke onto the international music scene with his tracks “Lo Malo” and “Miss Lonely,” and ever since, he’s been cranking out collaborations with some of the most influential artists in the game.

2. Farruko - La167

Puerto Rican reggaetonero Farruko’s long anticipated album La167 has finally arrived. The project finds the hitmaker further defying industry standards, creating an eclectic ambiance fit for various subcultures and genres.

“[LA 167] is the record, this is the moment, this is the story. It’s an act that will mark my career, my family and it will ultimately mark who I am as a person,” said Farruko about the album.

Intentionally crafted to honor the intersections of his hometown of Bayamon and the legacy of his late grandfather, the album displays a Farruko that is nostalgic, festive, vulnerable, and proud. To celebrate the release, he’s also sharing the high-energy video for “El Incomprendido,” featuring Victor Cardenas and DJ Adoni.
