Yami Safdie, Emilia, Xavi & More: Vote for the Best New Latin Music This Week

This week, Billboard’s New Music Latin roundup and playlist — curated by Billboard Latin and Billboard Español editors — features fresh new music, including Karol G’s Tropicoqueta, Xavi’s “El Malo” and Yami Safdie and Emilia’s “+ Te Vale.”

In their strikingly vulnerable ballad, Safdie and Emilia narrate the POV of a heartbroken woman who is watching her ex move on, and she has some advice for him. “I wanted another woman to sing it with me, another female voice that could sustain this emotion from a different place,” Safdie said in a press statement about collaborating with fellow Argentine powerhouse. “We sent it to Emilia, honestly, without many expectations … And when she responded to us with so much humility, so connected to the lyrics, it was a very big moment for me. Last year I opened her shows. Today, we record together as pairs. It’s a dream.”

Karol G also released her highly anticipated new LP, Tropicoqueta, which includes collaborations with Marco Antonio Solís, Eddy Lover and Manu Chao, to name a few. “This album is an homage to all those Latin music genres I grew up listening to,” Karol previously told Billboard Español.

Other new releases this week include music from Edén Muñoz, Natanael Cano and Código FN. Which release this week do you think is best? Give these new releases a spin and vote for your favorite new Latin music release below:
