Panama helped birth the sound we now know as reggaetón, and it remains a deeply relevant creative force now within the globally renowned genre. Singer-songwriter Sech’s arrival in that storied tradition came in like a quiet storm, as his single with Darell, “Otro Trago,” gathered momentum for weeks in the wake of the corresponding Sueños full-length, going on to become one of the biggest urbano hits of 2019. While that track rightfully garnered praise and attention, the album luxuriates in that same R&B-centric approach. Polished dembow and earnest vocals characterize the bulk of this exceptional record, and it has dance-floor feels in abundance on highlights like “Falsas Promesas” and the “Que Más Pues” remix, which is packed with features from heavy hitters like Farruko and Nicky Jam.
