Bad Bunny: Un Verano Sin Ti review – this is why he is the world's ... (The Guardian)

Hopping from psychedelia to indie-pop to woozy reggaeton, this giant album flaunts the Puerto Rican's boundless creativity.

Moscow Mule is a nice song with a pleasingly sunlit mood – not for the last time on the album, the attempts to conjure a beachside atmosphere extend to using the sound of seagulls – but its combination of reggaeton beats and AutoTuned vocals feels very familiar, regardless of the language it’s sung in; likewise Dos Mil 16, a ballad over a trap beat. Not everything here is as great as that – like most 23-track albums, Un Verano Sin Ti could have used a nip and a tuck. At its conclusion, the listener is deposited in a completely different place to where they started. El Último Tour Del Mundo was the third album he released in 2020 (the first, YHLQMDLG was the highest charting all-Spanish language album in US history until he beat his own record). Un Verano Sin Ti contains 23 tracks and goes on for the best part of an hour and a half. Why would you need the star power of a Cardi B or Dua Lipa to help you crossover when you’ve already done so on a grand scale? In the US, he is huge on a historic scale: the first artist to top the Billboard charts with an entirely Spanish-language album, El Último Tour Del Mundo. It was recently announced he would play the lead role in a forthcoming Marvel film, about a wrestler called El Muerto whose mask gives him superhuman powers; before that, he will star opposite Brad Pitt in an action movie called Bullet Train.

Five Things We Learned From Bad Bunny's 'Un Verano Sin Ti' (Rolling Stone)

From there, he kept sharing short clips of Casa and Berlingeri hanging out together while he cranked out music on bright tropical beaches — little dispatches ...

But Bad Bunny also brings in under-the-radar producers, such as the low-key hitmaker La Paciencia and the emerging wunderkind Elikai. But what’s most noteworthy is the surprising number of indie and experimental artists who appear in the credits. Bad Bunny often enlists collaborators who reflect the sharpest OGs and the brightest newcomers in reggaeton. He bounces between mambo on “Después de la Playa,” dembow on “Tití Me Preguntó,” electro-pop on “Neverita,” and bossa nova on “Yo No Soy Celoso,” just to name a few sounds. He smartly splits the tracks into Side A and Side B and spreads out his experiments to break up repetition. Elaborate album rollouts usually aren’t Bad Bunny‘s style — most of his projects have dropped into the universe in an unexpected, last-minute burst of chaos, excitement, and social media freakouts.

Bad Bunny releases new album Un Verano Sin Ti (Evening Standard)

The Puerto Rican singer-songwriter is back with his first album in two years.

In March, we also saw the artist feature in a trailer for Bullet Train, a new David Leitch–directed film, where he was seen fighting Brad Pitt. It’s all go for Bad Bunny. The artist has collaborated with J Balvin on 2019 album Oasis and on La Noche De Anoche with Rosalía. He performed at the Super Bowl LIV halftime show in 2020, as a guest on stage with Shakira and Jennifer Lopez. He also became the first non-English language act to be Spotify’s most-streamed artist of the year in both 2020 and 2021. Bad Bunny gained worldwide fame in 2018 when he collaborated with rapper Cardi B and J Balvin on the track I Like It. It reached first place on the US Billboard Hot 100 and received a Grammy nomination for Record of the Year. He then released his debut album X 100pre on Christmas Eve that same year, which was met with critical acclaim.

Later, Bad Bunny reunites with Jhay Cortez for “Tarot”; after pushing towards a more EDM direction on the global smash “Dákiti,” they keep their reggaeton on course in this hypnotic club banger. As Alejandro sings, they come through with a “Un bellaqueo bien nasty.” In this alluring reggaeton romp with an electronic touch, both artists lay their sexy swagger on thick. On Side A, he makes up for the reggaeton that was lacking on the trap-heavy El Último. Fans’ perreo dreams come true with “Party” featuring Rauw Alejandro, who is another Puerto Rican star on the rise.

Bad Bunny on His Surprise Album, 'Un Verano Sin Ti' (The New York Times)

I've made it clear to people that I'm never going to make a record that's the same as another,” the pop star said. His fourth album was inspired by a ...

“That I’m sure of.” “It’s not a critique, like, ‘Don’t do it!’” he added. “I wanted someone to sing it out of love, because it’s a sincere message.” “I don’t think I’m going to be making reggaeton at 40,” he said. When asked about what he hoped to do at the Met Gala, he joked, “I want my hookah,” cackling. He approached “Un Verano Sin Ti” with a bit of a lighter touch: “It’s a record to play in the summer, on the beach, as a playlist.” He drew on both recent experiences and nostalgia for dog days of the past. “Since forever I’ve made it clear to people that I’m never going to make a record that’s the same as another,” he said. “It should be free.” “I had never worked this hard for a song.” “Un Verano Sin Ti” is a pop album, but not necessarily a straightforward one. “Obviously I’m happy that they invited me,” he said, twirling from side to side in a high leather swivel chair at New York’s venerated Electric Lady Studios about 48 hours before the exclusive fashion fête. “I know that day is going to be an exciting thing,” he continued. He released two LPs in 2020, including “El Último Tour Del Mundo,” the first fully Spanish-language album to hit No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart.
