Épico

Épico

“I think it started because of my belief in God,” Lunay tells Apple Music of his earliest experiences with music, listening to his parents sing at church when he was just a kid. “That awakened something in me.” By his own account, faith and positivity have only helped the young Puerto Rican reggaetonero’s natural R&B chops and rapid ascent in música urbana. After making a powerful first impression with his features on high-profile posse cuts like “A Solas” and “Luz Apaga,” his single “Soltera” and its corresponding remix with Bad Bunny and Daddy Yankee proved one of the biggest Spanish-language hits of 2019. “I felt that was everything I asked God for since I was a kid, everything I had fought for since I was young,” he says of securing such superstars for the inverted single ladies’ anthem. These compounding successes led to Épico, Lunay’s engaging full-length debut. From the moonlit escapades of “Aventura” to the taboo passions of “Quiero,” he brings a romantic flair to thumping reggaetón rhythms and polished synth programming. Aided by Wisin & Yandel, “Mi Favorita” evokes Romeo and Juliet imagery to express a love as strong as any drug, while “Malas Intenciones” offers a jaded yet nonetheless empowered perspective on the “Soltera” theme.
