On the new track, Yatra and Puerto Rico’s Diaz sing solely about unrequited love.
“Where do the kisses go? / The ones you didn’t know how to accept / And the stares that you never returned / I want to recuperate them,” says the chorus.
Fusing their both worlds, “A Donde Van” is a seductive mix of Latin pop and Hip-Hop, with hints of Flamenco.
“It is an unexpected collaboration, and each one of us went out of our comfort zones,” says Yatra of the new single. “That’s one of the cool things I love about music, discovering new facets. The song deals with where the kisses go when they are given, what happens with the caresses, the moments and the memories, it makes you remember all the people who have passed through your life.”
The video for the new single is expected to be released on August 27 at 8:00 am.
This year’s Premios Juventud will include a special segment, honoring 25 years of Selena Quintanilla’s music and legacy, with the 33-year-old Dominican singer-songwriter among the artists set to take part.
In addition to Natasha, Selena’s brother and producer of her biggest hits, A.B. Quintanilla III, will participate in the special dedicated to la Reina de la Musica Tejana.
The other artists participating in the Selena tribute include Karol G, Danna Paola, Ally Brooke and Greeicy.
“For me being part of this special was a real honor. She is a woman that after all these years, and everything that has happened, is a legend. I never hard the chance to meet her while she was here but she is an icon, an icon that lasts a lifetime,” Greeicy tells Billboard.
“How amazing is it that she has inspired so many with her music. It was very challenging for me to create the energy and portray her flavors of cumbia. It was a beautifully difficult challenge and it was very special because I learned from her music and I’m going to keep enjoying it with respect and I hope to honor her. To have the privilege to prepare this special with her brother, who knew her, lived with her, and spent her life with her, is very special. It was a hard challenge for me because I felt like I was speaking directly to her. The special is going to be really great, it was beautiful to be able to create it with him, he was wonderful to work with,” she adds.
