This Friday the 13th hasn’t turned out as unlucky as some others, mainly because we’ve had a few highly-anticipated releases today. The most talked-about subjects revolve around Taylor Swift‘s new film The Eras Tour Film, which is doing stunningly well at the box office, and Bad Bunny’s surprise album drop, Nadie sabe lo que va a pasar mañana. He only announced it last week, keeping us in suspense with the tracklist and collaborations until now.
This album comes with a total of 22 new songs, offering more than an hour and a half of music, including collaborations with artists like Young Miko (Fina), Mora (Hibiki), Bryant Myers (Seda), Luar La L (Teléfono nuevo), Yovngchimi (Mercedes Carota), Feid (Perro negro), De La Ghetto, Arcángel, and Ñengo Flow (Acho PR). However, the song that’s drawing the most attention is the one he did with Eladio Carrión, called «Thunder y Lightning.» And just to clarify, it’s not in English.
People are really talking about the lyrics on social media, especially the last two verses where J Balvin is mentioned. By the way, J Balvin recently dropped a somewhat controversial song a few days ago, collaborating with Tainy, Young Miko, and Jowell & Randy. But there’s more to it; there’s another verse that’s being retweeted a lot, and it’s the one where Bad Bunny seems to be passing the trap torch to Eladio.

When Bad Bunny announced this album, he surprised everyone by showing up with a shaved head, something we hadn’t seen for three years. Many speculated that this meant he was returning to the trap genre, which makes that verse all the more significant.

Both Benito and Eladio have already tasted success together, like with «Coco Chanel,» which topped the charts in Latin America this summer. Now, all signs point to this new collaboration being another big hit.
