Thania Garcia Becky G’s second studio album, the vivacious “Esquemas” has arrived via Kemosabe/RCA Records. The new LP sees the Mexican-American pop star dictating her own terms, melting together disco-pop and reggaeton for a unique blend of sounds that’s entirely Becky G. “Esquemas” takes its listeners through a journey of self-discovery and empowerment beginning with the album’s introductory track “Buen Dia.” Over a reggaeton drum beat, Becky’s new-found personal liberation manifests as she preaches how it’s never too late to stop caring what people think and announces she’s finally found the gall to take over the world. “Con ganas de comer me el mundo, desperté,” she sings: “With the desire to devour the world, I awoke.” Becky previously released the smash hit single “Mamiii” with friend and frequent collaborator, Karol G.
The two harnessed their global stardom performing the track for Karol’s explosive Coachella Weekend One set. Other singles include “No Mienten,” “Ram Pam Pam,” featuring singer-songwriter Natti Natasha, and “Fulianito,” which borrows the intoxicating tempos of Dominican rapper El Alfa.
She also tapped up-and-coming Puerto Rican reggaeton star, Guanyaa for the sultry bounce of “Tajin.”The disco-pop dance track and last single, “Bailé Con Mi Ex,” sits at the heart of the record.
