Erick Brian Explores Cuban Reparto Sound
31 Jul
Summary
- Erick Brian releases new single 'Efímera' with new collaborators.
- The song marks a shift from R&B to Cuba's reparto musical movement.
- Several other artists also released new music this week.
Erick Brian, who previously was a member of CNCO, has launched his latest single, 'Efímera.' This new track is a collaboration with Cuban artists Dale Pututi and Nesty. It represents a significant musical pivot for Brian, moving away from the R&B and Afrobeats sounds that characterized the start of his solo career.
Instead, 'Efímera' dives into the burgeoning reparto genre from Cuba. Reparto is a dynamic fusion of urban music with elements of timba, son, and rumba, driven by the distinctive clave rhythm. The song's lyrics explore the complexities of a relationship where the individuals are not on the same wavelength.
Brian expressed that the song is deeply personal, allowing him to reconnect with his Cuban heritage and experiment with a fresh sound. He highlighted the special nature of collaborating with Pututi and Nesty, viewing this release as a new chapter in his musical journey. This week's releases also include new music from Karol G, Benny Blanco, Selena Gomez, Becky G, and Los Tigres del Norte.
