Karol G just dropped her new album No Me Arrepiento De Sentir Tanto, and it's a fittingly expansive tracklist for such a massive artist. One of the biggest names to provide a guest feature was Drake on the song "Ahí," which represents the 6ix God's latest foray into Spanish-language music and the Latin American world.
The Toronto superstar graced his Colombian counterpart with a pre-chorus, harmonized chorus vocals, a brief brigde, and an outro interpolating his lyrics about Karol on MAID OF HONOUR's "New Bestie." Elsewhere on the song, the instrumental is a pretty breezy and watery reggaetón beat pulling from Afrobeats rhythms and tones.
Overall, fans seem pretty happy with this release, even if it might not be up their alley genre-wise. After all, Karol G is a great melodic writer and performer, and matching these skills with The Boy works quite well.
Of couse, some fans will always bring up criticisms whenever he sings in another language, and others won't be very impressed by the pop-centric and lyrically standard performance. But for the most part, folks are taking this as a summery jam for the party, and that's not an insult.
Karol G & Drake's "Ahí"
Hopefully the two have more collaborations to share in the future. After all, Drake and Karol G are fans of each other, and have made that bond apparent over the years. He recently attended her show in Toronto and had an amazing time. Karol has spoken fondly of their dynamic in previous interviews and statements.
As such, many fans praised the chemistry on display, with others hoping for something a bit more punchy. The OVO mogul and Karol are so versatile, though, that anyone looking for their other sides will definitely find them on No Me Arrepiento De Sentir Tanto. In the former's case, he just dropped three new albums with very distinct styles, showing off this variety.
Fans React
We will see how fan reception evolves and how this track performs commercially. Elsewhere, Drake might have more new music dropping soon. It's been a very exciting year for him. It's shaping up to be a massive one for Karol G as well.
