A.Chal’s ‘LMKK’ Voted This Week’s Favorite New Music Latin
A.Chal’s new single “LMKK” has topped this week’s new music Latin ballot.
In a ballot printed on Friday (Oct. 25) — in help of the weekly New Music Latin roundup and playlist, curated by Billboard Latin and Billboard Español editors — music followers voted for the Peruvian-American artist’s new observe as their favourite music launch of the week.
The Spanglish “LMKK” generated greater than 89 p.c of the vote, beating out different new releases that dropped this week together with Alejandro Sanz’s “Palmeras en el Jardín,” Sech’s comeback tune “Toy Perdio,” Carín León & Gabito Ballesteros’ “Ese Vato No Te Queda” and Latin Mafia’s debut album, Todos Los Días Todo El Día, to call just a few. Sanz’s single — which he previewed throughout 2024 Billboard Latin Music Week earlier this month — got here in at second place.
Composed and produced by A.Chal himself throughout a visit to Milan, “LMKK” masterfully intertwines the nostalgic attraction of reggaetón with up to date alt-R&B, sampling the long-lasting “Yo Voy” by Zion & Lenox, that includes Daddy Yankee. “Yo te tengo all over my mind, and you know, I don’t care if tú no eres mine,” he chants within the elusive and stylish observe.
“On my last tour when I looked into the crowd, I saw different types of characters coming to see me that usually wouldn’t be in the same room,” he mentioned in a press assertion. “They all had their own distinct vibe, and championed different songs. That inspired me to make songs that all those groups could connect with and move to together equally. ‘LMKK’ is a small hint of that direction I’m leaning in to.”
