This week, Billboard’s New Music Latin roundup and playlist — curated by Billboard Latin and Billboard Español editors — features fresh new albums from artists such as Luis Fonsi, Nora Gonzalez, and LAGOS, to name a few.

Fonsi immerses us in a journey around the world with his album El Viaje, where each song is titled after a different city, such as “Santa Marta” in collaboration with the Colombian Carlos Vives and “Roma” with Italian Laura Pausini.

On the other hand, the “Charra Millenial” Nora González presents the 7-song EP Mariachi Bebecín, in which “the artist shows off that sublime and powerful voice that earned her a Latin Grammy nomination,” comments the deputy editor of Billboard Español, Sigal Ratner-Arias.

Three years after their debut album, LAGOS released their second studio album Alta Fidelidad. With this, they manage to link the past with the present with elements of 80’s pop and a contemporary sound that captivates from beginning to end, while solidifying their essence and bringing a breath of fresh air to the current music scene.

Other new releases this week include Bacilos’ new álbum Pequeños Romances, “Ya Te Superé” from Xavi and Tony Aguirre, and Alejo’s album En Este Nos Fuimos Lejos, among others.

Last week, the song “La Durango” by Peso Pluma, Junior H, and Eslabon Armado received almost 70% of the votes, surpassing Grupo Frontera’s album, Jugando A Que No Pasa Nada, and Ryan Castro’s new set, El Cantante del Ghetto, to mention a few.
