With the release of the two Rauw Alejandro albums Saturno and RR, it has been difficult to avoid having your Latin playlists on repeat. Featured on Billboard’s Top Latin Albums are Un Verano Sin Ti and Saturno. Both albums have been positioned as the stepping stone albums for non-Spanish speakers to explore Latin music, especially in light of Rauw's Coachella appearance and Bad Bunny's performance at the Grammy’s. Along with Bad Bunny, Ferxxo (also known as Feid) also released an album in 2022 titled, Feliz Cumpleanoes Ferxxo Te Pirateamos El Album and a new number-one song in 2023 titled "Classy 101." For my non-Spanish music listeners, this is the guide to the must-have 30 Latin tracks on your playlist for this month.
Rauw Alejandro
Rauw Alejandro Ocasio Ruiz launched his music career in 2014 on SoundCloud by releasing several singles and EPs. He first came into prominence in 2016 with the launch of "Punto de Equilibrio," and in 2020, he garnered notoriety with the release of his album Afrodisiaco, which earned him a Grammy nomination. As a big fan of Rauw, I love his albums Vice Versa and Saturno. My favorite song by him, though, is "Tiroteo." The tracks that you must have on repeat from the Puerto Rican singer, Rauw, are listed below.

Bad Bunny
Since he was 14 years old, Bad Bunny (also known as Benito Antonio Martinez Ocasio) has been releasing songs on SoundCloud. However, following the release of "Soy Peor" in 2016, he significantly increased his popularity and notoriety. Latino or not, everyone has been listening to his most recent album, Un Verano Sin Ti, which has gained widespread success. Along with his most recent release, my favorite Bad Bunny albums are X100PRE and OASIS. The music listed below needs to be on your playlists!
