Friends, you can now pre-save Caribbean Cruise, the new compilation from Putumayo Discovery, this Friday, January 9th. I'll be featured on it along with Robert Mavounza, Roger Gibbs & Shack Shack, Dominique Patrick Noel with Eduardo Padua, Hector Luis Pagan & Eddie Montalvo, Clinton Fearon, Saïna Manotte, Adri Paiz, Estilo Y Gracia, Teff, and Wesli.

Caribbean Cruise takes you on a joyful tropical journey guided by the infectious rhythms and expressive voices of the Caribbean's island and coastal cultures. From Trinidadian calypso and Cuban son to Jamaican roots reggae, smooth French Creole zouk, vibrant Afro-Colombian champeta, and much more, this collection reflects the rich and irresistible soundscape that has made the Caribbean one of the world's greatest sources of musical inspiration.

With a mix of rising stars, local legends, and new discoveries, Caribbean Cruise invites you to embark on a musical journey that goes beyond postcards and pools to celebrate the rich culture of this extraordinary region. I've included the link in my bio to presave.

🎶✨ A new single out today! "Latido Ancestral" is available on all major platforms!

A first-time meeting turned collaboration: three Putumayo Discovery alumni, Spanish producer Em9 (Joel López Esteves), Mexico City's Chill&Go (Juan Gutiérrez Torres), and Colombian artist/producer El Hijo del Búho (Julián Sarmiento Figueroa, 2020 Latin Grammy nominee), join forces on "Latido Ancestral," a song born from their shared history in the Putumayo family.
Sung in Spanish, the lyrics paint a tender, nature-rooted portrait of love and longing: starlight, an echoed voice, the warmth of an embrace, using the image of a tree's roots and branches stretching toward river and sea to evoke a deep, ancestral bond that pulses like a heartbeat through the blood.
