Essential Albums
- Ozuna knows how to craft a hit. His wildly successful 2017 debut album, Odisea, spent 30 weeks atop the Billboard Latin Albums chart, breaking Luis Miguel's record for the longest-running No. 1 album by a male artist in the chart's history, standing second only to Gloria Estefan's Mi Tierra. But since being discovered by manager Vicente Saavedra, the Puerto Rican superstar has been on the path of airwave domination, building his name with blockbuster crossovers and a meticulous cocktail of reggaetón, pop, Latin trap and dancehall. Odisea delivered on the promise of its name, which translates to odyssey, stacking the tracklist with epic, shimmering perreo and a star-studded guest list that has stood the test of time. Describing the album’s third single, “Dile Que Tú Me Quieres”, as inescapable might be an understatement, as Ozuna's soaring, devilishly catchy hook reverberated across radio, nightclubs, and house parties worldwide throughout 2017. The perreo shenanigans didn't end there, as cuts like “Egoísta” (with Zion & Lennox) and “Quiero Repetir” (alongside J. Balvin) found inspiration in ‘90s dancehall while turning up the drums to maximum pounding effect. The delicious infidelity intrigue of “Se Preparó” is the epitome of pop-reggaetón songwriting—fuel to dance your heartache away while unleashing primal screams from the centre of a dance floor. While Odisea is filled with gleeful party anthems, Ozuna also successfully transmuted melodramatic Latin balladry into the urbano realm. One of the album's most emblematic singles is “El Farsante”, a heartrending confessional unspooling coldhearted love games, boosted by percolating trap percussion and shimmering synths. Ozuna's raw, emotional vocals draw heavy inspiration from ‘90s R&B torch songs, a recurring motif heard on intimate cuts like “Una Flor” and “Carita de Ángel”. And even on the slow-burning “Pide Lo Que Tú Quieras” with De La Ghetto, the machine-gun trap treble creates a canvas of longing and smouldering seduction. The spirit of futurism also manifests in these songs, notably on “Síguelo Bailando”, where Afrobeats and techno basslines evoke VIP bottle service at a South African disco. On “Noches de Aventura”, warbling arpeggios propel what could otherwise be a traditional reggaetón earworm into an exciting, house-inflected fantasy of unpredictable nights out on the town with a boo.

About Ozuna
In an Apple Music interview breaking down his 2020 album ENOC, Ozuna described the inspiration behind a track called “El Reggaetón”. But wait—reggaetón? Wasn’t that more of, like, a 2000s term? Maybe. But just remember how long it took for the world to learn it. “We insisted and insisted,” Ozuna said, speaking in translation. “And now we’re going to take it away when people have managed to catch it? We can’t.” Alongside collaborators Bad Bunny and J Balvin, Ozuna represents a wave of young artists helping shepherd Latinx pop from specialty market into the global mainstream while staying firmly rooted in the places and sounds they came from. Born Juan Rosado in San Juan, in 1992, Ozuna was raised on reggaetón pioneers Daddy Yankee, Don Omar and Wisin & Yandel alongside American rap and more traditional sounds like salsa and bachata. After a brief stint trying to get his career off the ground in New York City, he came back to Puerto Rico—a move that helped clarify his priorities not just as an artist, but as a representative of his place and people. Even on his collaborations (“Taki Taki” with DJ Snake, Selena Gomez and Cardi B, or “Mamacita” with the Black Eyed Peas), you don’t sense Ozuna stretching to cross over. If anything, the undiluted quality of Ozuna’s music—like Balvin’s and Bunny’s—represents the changing demographics of modern mainstream pop. We know the word reggaetón now, sure. But in Ozuna’s opinion, there’s no harm in saying it again.
