Bomba Estéreo & Rawayana’s ‘Me Pasa (Piscis)’& More Best New Music Latin

New Music Latin is a compilation of the best new Latin songs and albums recommended by Billboard Latin and Billboard Español editors. Check out this week’s picks below.

Astropical (Bomba Estéreo & Rawayana), “Me Pasa (Piscis)” (Sony Music Latin)

Bomba Estéreo and Rawayana are two of the most beloved contemporary bands from Colombia and Venezuela. Now together, as the supergroup Astropical, they deliver an explosion of flavor with “Me Pasa (Pisces)” – the first single from a project that combines the worlds of astrology and tropical rhythms. The song, which fuses Afrobeats with the sounds of the Colombian gaita flute and a nostalgic guitar line, makes references to the Colombian champeta, the Venezuelan arepas and songs by Juan Luis Guerra when talking about an irresistible attraction between two people who are ready to start a journey together.

The voices of Li Saumet of Bomba and Beto Montenegro of Rawa shine separately, but create magic when they meet in the infectious chorus: “What’s wrong with me? What’s wrong with me?/ The floor is moving and there is no one in the house/ My heart beats and that doesn’t happen to me/ But what do I care?” It’s a joyous and promising letter of introduction to the new supergroup that we didn’t know we needed. — SIGAL RATNER-ARIAS

Elena Rose & Morat, “Un Beso Menos” (Kira Records/Warner Music Latina)

Elena Rose’s knack to craft love songs shines in her latest single, “Un Beso Menos,” with Colombian band Morat adding another layer of emotional depth to the sentimental song. In the heartfelt pop ballad, Elena Rose and Morat narrate a relationship where every kiss feels like a bittersweet goodbye, and time together is always too short. “I can’t help but think that every time we see each other, it’s not one more kiss, it’s one less/ So don’t let me go tonight,” they sing with pathos. — GRISELDA FLORES

Daniel Sabater, “danito” (Sony Music Entertainment Spain)

Emerging Spanish pop artist Daniel Sabater delivers a deeply emotional ballad with “danito,” a piano piece that evokes nostalgia and mourning for a lost love. With a delicate, cracked voice and a performance full of vulnerability, the singer-songwriter reflects on the longing for who he used to be, while saying goodbye to his former self, who lived tied to that relationship. The music video adds an even more intimate dimension, showing the artist performing the song in a single take. — LUISA CALLE

Trueno + Feid, “Cruz” (Sur Capital Records/Sony Music Latin)

In a first collaborative effort, Trueno and Feid deliver “Cruz,” which translates to “cross” in English. Effortlessly lacing the Argentine and Colombian lingo, the two artists sing to an ex who they miss but has moved on: “Baby your eyes are my light and my sins are bigger than the cross/ That’s why I go to where you are.” Notably is the track’s G-funk beat helmed by producers Tatool and LukasBL. “Cruz” fuses rap with funk, deep bass, snare drums, and groovy synthesizers, bringing to 2025 the g-funk made popular in the ‘90s by artists such as Snoop Dogg and Dr. Dre. — JESSICA ROIZ

Meme del Real, “Princesa” (DOCEMIL Music/HYBE Latin America)

Meme del Real, famously known as a key member of Café Tacvba, launches his solo debut with “Princesa,” under Hybe Latin America’s new label, DOCEMIL Music. The multifaceted singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist channels the serenity of the natural environment into his music, establishing an intimate connection between himself and his surroundings. The song starts as a soft ballad enriched with orchestral and harp elements, then seamlessly transitions into vibrant synth-pop. This single is the first from his upcoming album, and it heralds his personal rebirth as a vocalist.

“The opportunity to have such a close relationship with nature provided me with a different perspective on the ecology of systems; not only natural, but also how I relate to my family, my friends, and the environment,” Meme says in a press release. With production led by the legendary Gustavo Santaolalla, “Princesa” solidifies itself as an exceptional debut in Meme’s solo career. — ISABELA RAYGOZA
