About Cántalo

"Cántalo" (transl. "Sing It") is a song recorded by Puerto Rican singer Ricky Martin with Puerto Rican rappers Residente and Bad Bunny. The song was released by Sony Music Latin on November 12, 2019. "Cántalo" has a fascinating story, Martin explained to Puerto Rican newspaper El Nuevo Día in Spanish. "Fania [Records] gave me the masters of ‘Mi Gente’ to work on this song, which is a very big responsibility and that fills my heart with pride." "The collaboration in this song continues to show the union through music and within a circle of different generations that represent our culture and heritage," said Residente, who co-produced the song with frequent collaborator Jeffrey "Trooko" Peñalva. "It was an incredible experience to integrate ‘Mi Gente,’ a song with a rich history from its creation in Africa to its global impact." "I have always wanted to unite generations through my music," Martin added. "I have to give a lot of credit to Residente, a great producer and lyricist, and of course to Bad Bunny, the fresh face of the genre and a person who, being very young, has very important things to say. We have many things in common and that’s where magic is born. I am really excited to have been able to collaborate with artists as talented and special as they are."
