New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Following the worldwide success and 'eye-popping' critical praise of his yearlong Arcoiris ('Rainbow') Tour,
J Balvin recently shared that he has now been envisioning his new music through the lens of distinctive individual colors. With today's release of his new single and video for "
Morado" ("
Purple"), the Colombian superstar shares a second sonic color from his palette in this series that began with last fall's 'head-spinning and hypnotic' "Blanco." Once again working with favorite and frequent creative collaborators such as SKY (song producer and co-writer), video director Collin Tilley, and Takashi Murakami (artwork),
J Balvin continues to develop his globally embraced distinctive style of Reggaeton - this time with an upbeat intimate party invitation in color appropriate regal surroundings.
A perfect fit for worldwide Pop, Dance and of course Latin charts, "
Morado"arrives this week as
J Balvin and The
Black Eyed Peas also continue to hold the #1 Latin Song in The United States, with their recent collaboration "RITMO (Bad Boys For Life)" in the top spot of Billboard's "Hot Latin Songs" chart for a second consecutive week.
