10 New Songs to Listen to by Pabllo Vittar, Alok, Neton Vega & More

Brazilian drag and pop star Pabllo Vittar returns with a genre-bending album led by its centerpiece, “BAD GOOD.” The track opens with an enthralling synth entrance before shifting into a buoyant blend of techno and forró that puts Vittar’s musical core front and center. Produced by Brazilian DJ Chernobruno, it’s a nightclub-ready anthem for anyone tempted by forbidden love, carried by Vittar’s magnetic pop vocals. English also plays a larger role on the album. “Why not? I love all my fans around the world,” Vittar told Remezcla. “I think it’s an amazing time to deliver an album in English and Spanish.” Vittar also revealed plans for a global tour next year, so we’ll be watching for dates. – Jeanette Hernandez

PJ Sin Suela‘s rapid run toward his next album continues with “PAL WEST,” a collaboration with Pink Pablo. After working together on Pablo’s sophomore album, the two reunite for a sun-soaked bop—perfect for Puerto Rico, where summer lasts all year. Masters of the catchy hook, they deliver a frisky love letter to Puerto Rico’s west side that will have you longing to feel sand between your toes. — Juan J. Arroyo

Argentine artist Dani Rodriguez bridges the spiritual and earthly on “Donde respira el cielo,” a double single featuring “Niña del sur” and “Mi alma te recuerda.” Rodriguez reimagines Argentine folk through an alternative, experimental lens, drawing on raw textures, fractured rhythms, and an intentionally organic sound. “Mi alma te recuerda” looks inward and upward, finding traces of God in everyday life, while “Niña del sur” grounds the release in identity, memory, and a deep connection to the land that shaped her. Together, the songs unfold as a conversation between sky and soil, spirituality and belonging, while a chapter-based video extends that conversation into a visual world. — Natasha Melina Argudo

On her latest single, singer-songwriter Andrea Bejar explores womanhood and aging through a nostalgic yet contemporary sound. Blending folk pop, country, and twee pop, the track recalls Hu Hu Hu-era Natalia Lafourcade and early Carla Morrison without imitating either. Delicate, busy acoustic guitars, gentle drums, and trumpet melodies lend it a throwback quality. At the same time, lyrics about the pressure women face around aging and appearance bring the story into the present. Bejar’s earnest vocals and melodies turn the song into a hopeful affirmation. — Marcos Hassan

Mexican singer-songwriter Herbolaria has proven a curious talent, moving between indie pop and psychedelia. Originally from Mazatlan, Sinaloa, and now based in Mexico City, she has released her full-length debut, Me Hicieron un Amarre y Nunca Me Soltaron, after years of hustle. The album blends cumbia, Southwestern guitars, and space-age synths. “Tika-raka-tikatika-ti” is an onomatopoeic highlight about longing to dance with a paramour, with restless, seductive lines like “Dime qué tiene de malo.” Though lyrically simple, the song’s sexy tension builds as Herbolaria’s desire goes unfulfilled, drawing listeners deeper into its dance-floor telenovela. —Richard Villegas

A few weeks after releasing the lovely five-track EP Canciones de Amor, which follows her 2025 third album Naturaleza, New York-based Ecuadorian artist María Usbeck has shared “Chirimoya.” Venezuelan multimedia artist Lulannie joins her on vocals as they party in a pastel-tinted fantasy of their own making, set to a reggaeton beat and Usbeck’s signature shimmering synths. They sing about the titular fruit, whose rocky exterior hides a soft, sweet center—like a heart hardened by life but still full of love. Usbeck and Lulannie also directed the playful video, which may leave you hungry. — Cheky

Ed Maverick seems to have decided that one emotional extreme wasn’t enough. Across two new singles, the beloved Chihuahua crooner shifts from the barely-there tenderness of “tendría que hablar de luz” to the slow devastation of “ESCOMBRO,” making feelings sound enormous in two very different ways. Recorded in a single take, “tendría que hablar de luz” strips things back to a direct declaration of love, leaving little beyond Maverick’s voice and the awe that makes simplicity hit so hard. “ESCOMBRO” begins just as exposed. It builds steadily with tension, strings, and unruly guitars until the arrangement feels like rubble piling up around him. Together, the tracks make a powerful return, proving Maverick is just as compelling when he clears everything away as when he lets it collapse. – Jeanette Diaz

Brazilian DJ and producer Alok and K-pop star Nayeon team up on “Bye, Bye Inhibitions,” a vibrant dance-pop track that brings their sounds together naturally. Alok’s polished electronic production gives Nayeon’s charismatic vocals a buoyant, club-ready frame without dulling the TWICE star’s unmistakable pop presence. Their chemistry keeps the energy high from the first beat to the last, making it nearly impossible to stand still. – Júlia Henn

Mexican singer-songwriter María Nastenka’s first single of the year marks a decisive turn from her earlier sound. “Entre una cosa y otra” embraces darker tones and more ambitious production while retaining an indie-rock foundation. Nastenka draws on a wide range of instruments to create a moody, almost unsettling atmosphere, then abruptly breaks it with a kick drum and a jarring guitar shift. As the first official teaser for her forthcoming project, the track signals a striking new direction. – Alan Baez

What happens when Mexican star Neton Vega joins forces with Puerto Rico’s own De La Rose? The result is “Ni Tan Santx,” a warm, beachy track shaped by L. Prince’s sleek production. The two admit they’re no saints, yet are willing to share their light and dark sides despite the risks of jealousy—or worse, ghosting. Neton Vega delivers a bad boy’s love letter with laid-back passion, moving between mellow verses and rapid-fire bars. His delivery pairs seamlessly with De La Rose’s mermaid-like vocal runs, capturing the feeling of dancing at sunset. – La Morra Lisa
