Nathy Peluso Releases ‘Erotika’ & More Best New Music Latin

New Music Latin is a compilation of the best new Latin songs and albums recommended by Billboard Latin and Billboard Español editors. Check out this week’s picks below.

Tiago PZK & Teddy Swims, “Sometimes” (Grand Move Records/Warner Music Latina)

In the midst of his new musical era as Gotti, Tiago PZK teams up with the Grammy-nominated Teddy Swims for “Sometimes.” The bilingual track — co-produced by John Alexis, Marcus Lomax, Pontus Persson, and Tatool — is a sensual and soulful R&B jam that connects the Argentine rapper and country-pop star’s distinct powerhouse vocals. “Sometimes,” focus single off of Tiago’s GOTTI B EP, is focused on the desire to end a relationship without resentment. “Sometimes pienso en tu cuerpo (I think of your body)/ Sometimes pienso en lo nuestro (I think of us)/ Sometimes muero por dentro (I die inside),” goes the heartwrenching chorus. — JESSICA ROIZ

Nathy Peluso, “Erotika” (5020 Records/Sony Music España)

Salsa music isn’t just alive, it’s still winning fans — or, in this case, making some go back to it. After dabbling in the genre with songs like “Mafiosa,” “La Presa” and “Sugga,” Nathy Peluso this week releases “Erotika,” inspired by the erotic salsa scene of the 1990s in New York City. Co-written by the multifaceted Argentine singer and rapper alongside Manu Lara, Servando Primera and Danicrazytown, “Erotika” presents a provocative narrative about the passion that a certain person awakens in her. “You make me erotic/ Like ’90s salsa music/ Like a crazy person I begin to dance/ And I want you to feel my madness/ You make me erotic/ As if Grupo Niche were playing/ I’m thinking/ Tonight I’ll undress you,” Peluso sings in the chorus, over vibrant arrangements of brass, bass and percussion. It is a sensual song in which the artist reclaims a style of salsa traditionally performed by men. — SIGAL RATNER-ARIAS

Oscar Maydon & Netón Vega, “Amigos? No.” (Rancho Humilde)

Oscar Maydon and Netón Vega, Billboard‘s Latin Artists on the Rise for January and February, respectively, have joined forces for this slowed-down corrido tumbado that takes on the ever-so relatable theme of heratbreak. Just like its title, the lyrics of “Amigos? No.” are honest and direct. “She plays dirty, she knows how to manipulate me/ She wants to be my friend and I’m here so in love,” Vega sings. “She doesn’t look at me the way I look at her/ I give her my life, and she won’t even give me a kiss,” Maydon adds. Both artists lament being friend-zoned in their relationships, and they navigate how to tell that person they want more than just a friendship. — GRISELDA FLORES

Banda MS, Edición Limitada (Lizos Music)

Consisting of 14 songs powered by their traditional Sinaloan style, Edición Limitada includes songs like “Tu Perfume,” a romantic ballad that served as the set’s first single and already has over 150 million combined streams on Spotify and YouTube. “Mesa Para Uno” is another key track, as it talks about the physical absence of a loved one who has transcended — a theme the band takes on for the first in its 22-year career. But joyful dance tunes are also present on the band’s 18th studio album: “Mamacita” combines huapango with catchy and easy-to-remember lyrics, while fans will be able to relate to “Estás Cancelada” since it features the essence of most of their big hits: lyrics about heartbreak.

On Edición, you can hear the three Banda MS vocalists: Alan Ramirez, David Castro and Walo Silvas. The latter spoke to Billboard about the production: “It was made with so much time and so much care that each song was well thought out — it is the album that has taken us the longest but the wait was worth it.” Silvas also told Billboard that his favorite songs on the album are “Mesa Para Uno,” “Agárrate Fuerte” and “Amor Caro.” — TERE AGUILERA

Kapo x Myke Towers, “ILY” (Sony Music Latin/La Industria)

Kapo continues on his streak of dropping feel-good, optimistic music, and for his latest single, “ILY” (which stands for “I love you”), he reeled in Myke Towers to help. Produced by Miguelangel, Zazueta and Gangsta, the song blends smooth Afropop beats with urban melodies. Singing about an instant chemistry and wanting to spend the rest of the days with that special someone, Kapo chants: “After those kisses, I can get married/ Baby, if it’s with you, I’m not scared of skipping all the steps.”

Towers adds saucy, deep rap verses, offering: “I thought I wasn’t going to get involved, and my instinct failed me.” The Colombian breakthrough star and Puerto Rican urban sensation co-wrote the song alongside Orlando J. Cepeda Matos, Julio Emmanuel Batista Santos, Juan Diego Medina Vélez, Julián Turizo, Miguel Ángel Díaz Vélez and Daniel Rondón. — J.R.
