Song of the Day: Gundam – Danny Polo

It’s time to turn the lights down low as independent artist DANNY POLO‘s latest musical offering, ‘Gundam’ has a highly seductive lick of his signature Latin touch…

With vibrant Dominican and Colombian roots, Danny’s sound has already been on quite the journey. From Nashville to Los Angeles, he has been praised for his “pure flair, smooth flow and hot beats”, which earned him recognition from industry tastemakers like A&R Factory and Spotify, where his songs have previously been highlighted in New Music Friday Finland and Denmark, as well as Fresh Finds R&B and Latin. Multifaceted, he also achieved success as a producer and songwriter for esteemed artists such as CUBE, Devin Morrison and Landon Sears, solidifying his position as the “up next” talent, according to
iHeart Radio.

Ever dedicated to honoring his rich heritage, Polo recently traveled back and forth to Colombia, immersing himself in the cultural tapestry that fuels his artistic expression. The result is the mesmerizing ‘Gundam’, where Spanish and English share a passionate dance. Co-written with Sebastian Ferreira, the sultry track narrates the timeless tale of a distant rendezvous, embracing the fleeting yet intoxicating allure of a transient lover.

Elevating the auditory experience to new heights, ‘Gundam’ will be brought to life through visuals directed by the visionary Zarza, channeling the nostalgic aesthetic of yesteryear.

Jovaan Comes Through With His Highly-Anticipated Album, ‘Drafted.’

Puerto Rican urban rising singer JOVAAN‘s (pictured on the right) highly anticipated solo album’ Drafted’ features the focus track ‘Embustera,’ a collaboration featuring Puerto Rican reggaeton superstar Wisin. The upbeat urban/Latin track song showcases Jovaan and Wisin’s rap styles in a catchy rhythm that transports you to the club and puts you in the mood to dance and have a great time.

Jovaan opted to define his sound through the release of ‘Drafted’, with nine unique tracks including a bonus track, ‘Bape Remix’ that features his recently released collaboration with some of the hottest names in Latin urban music like Brray, Jon Z, Kevvo, Yovng Chimi, and Nengo Flow. ‘Drafted’ shows what a complete artist Jovaan is, delivering performances that range from intense and emotional.

In this album, Jovaan plays with the Latin urban genre, mixing a lot of reggaeton, drill, and trap, creating an experience that is perfect for going to the club, listening during long drives, or just blasting to yourself.

Jovaan began his music career at the age of 18, when he came to the realization that music was his passion. It wasn’t much later, when he gained recognition for the spanish version of ‘Woopty,’ which garnered over 400k+ views on YouTube. This up-and-coming artist’s main style emphasizes Drill & Trap, a subgenre of hip hop music that originated in the Chicago streets in the early 2010s. However, he does not limit himself from exploring all types of music genres. In 2021, Jovaan released ‘Umaga’ in which he solidified Drill and then continued to do so by introducing ‘BAPE’ alongside Brray, which was praised by the public.

In 2022, Jovaan signed on with urban record label WHITELION. Just wait to see what is in store for this new blood artist this year as he sets a new precedent for the future of Urban music. Have a listen to the sizzling hot project below…
