Spanish rock music veteran Juanes has teamed up with rising reggaeton star Ryan Castro for a festive and catchy new single, “El Chucu Chucu.” The music, the pair’s first collaboration, is an homage to the vacation traditions of the Colombian singers’ Antioquia ancestry.
Castro yearly releases a festive single, at all times donning his alter ego, “Richy,” within the visuals. This 12 months, Richy is joined by cousin “Toño,” portrayed by Juanes. The collaboration is claimed to be the product of the pair’s aim to “create a festive anthem celebrating household, music, and heritage,” in keeping with a press launch.
On the collaboration and Castro’s participation, Juanes stated, “In 1967 Pedro Jairo Garcés releasing his album ‘Playa Brisa y Mar,’ a traditional of the chucuchucu paisa sound. I really like that so a few years later we will come out with this chucuchucu to bounce.” He continued, “I thank Ryan Castro for the invitation and curiosity in rescuing this Christmas custom and this style from our roots.”
Castro’s vacation anthems embrace his standard 2021 single, “Mujeriego,” “El Pan de Estefanía” and “La Garrafa” (2022), and final 12 months’s “Richy El Pichón” and “El Bote.”
“Working with Juanes on ‘Chucu Chucu’ is a dream come true,” stated Castro. “His music has been part of my life since I used to be a child, and now to create one thing collectively that celebrates our Christmas roots
and traditions is particular. ¡Que viva Colombia!”
Castro just lately closed his “¡Ay Bendito Ghetto!” tour throughout the USA, a co-headlining trek with Blessd produced by Zamora Dwell. The tour spanned 16 cities, bought out 13 exhibits, and just lately
introduced its extension to Latin America and Spain.
